V14i NKT cell function has been implicated in a number of disease conditions. The molecular events that drive V14i NKT cell development remain elusive. We recently showed that T-bet is required for the terminal maturation of these cells. Here we identify some of the genetic targets of T-bet during V14i NKT cell lineage development. Microarray gene expression analyses on developing V14i NKT cells were performed and provide a molecular framework to study these maturation events. In vitro ectopic expression of T-bet in immature V14i NKT cells, which do not yet express T-bet, was sufficient to promote V14i NKT cell maturation, driving the expression of multiple genes, including those that participate in migration, survival and effector functions. By regulating the expression of Th1-associated cytokines, chemokines, chemokine receptors and molecules involved in cytolysis, T-bet defines the unique lineage attributes of mature V14i NKT cells and acts to link these attributes to a developmental process.
