Autologous Regulation of Naive T Cell Homeostasis Within the T Cell Compartment

Autologous regulation of naive T cell homeostasis within the T cell compartment.

Naive T cells undergo spontaneous slow proliferation on adoptive transfer into syngeneic T cell (T)-deficient hosts. Recent work has shown that such "homeostatic" T cell proliferation is driven by MHC molecules loaded with self-peptides rather than foreign peptides. Because naive T cells in normal T-sufficient hosts remain in interphase despite continuous contact with self-MHC/peptide ligands, ...

O 1: The Effects of Vitamin D Supplementation on the T cell Compartment in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a complex neurological disease and its prevalence is about 2 million in the world. Neuroinflammation plays a key role in MS. Vitamins are essential nutrients that have effective role on immune system including activation of lymphocyte and differentiation of T-helper cell. Vitamin D is a micronutrient that is effective on immune function. Deficiently of Vitamin D is a ...

TCR down-regulation controls T cell homeostasis.

TCR and cytokine receptor signaling play key roles in the complex homeostatic mechanisms that maintain a relative stable number of T cells throughout life. Despite the homeostatic mechanisms, a slow decline in naive T cells is typically observed with age. The CD3gamma di-leucine-based motif controls TCR down-regulation and plays a central role in fine-tuning TCR expression and signaling in T ce...
