Regulatory T Cell Subtypes and TGF-β1 Gene Expression in Chronic Allograft Dysfunction
Background: Regulatory T cells have been suggested to have a protective role against acute rejection in allograft recipients. However, there is little information available about their contribution to chronic rejection process. The role of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF- β1) as a profibrogenic and/or immunoregulatory cytokine in renal allografts is also controversial. Objectives: To eva...
متن کاملChronic T-cell Leukemia/Lymphoma.
This issue of Cancer Control focuses on the clinicopathologic features of chronic T-cell leukemia/ lymphoma. Chronic leukemia of T-cell origin was first identified by Brouet and colleagues in 1975. Several classification systems for T-cell lymphoid malignancies have been proposed since then. The French-American-British (FAB) Cooperative Group’s proposal for classification designated four subgro...
متن کاملCD8+ T cell evasion mandates CD4+ T cell control of chronic gamma-herpesvirus infection
Gamma-herpesvirus infections are regulated by both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. However clinical disease occurs mainly in CD4+ T cell-deficient hosts. In CD4+ T cell-deficient mice, CD8+ T cells control acute but not chronic lung infection by Murid Herpesvirus-4 (MuHV-4). We show that acute and chronic lung infections differ in distribution: most acute infection was epithelial, whereas most chronic i...
متن کاملAltered T Cell Homeostasis during Hiv-1 Infection: Consequences of Lymphopenia and Chronic T Cell Activation
Despite all the intense efforts and important progress achieved worldwide by the scientific community and public-health organizations, the HIV pandemic remains without effective solutions. The pathogenic mechanisms underlying the immunodeficiency that follows HIV-1 infection are still poorly understood. This lack of understanding is likely the main reason why at present there is neither a cure ...
متن کاملChronic Tumor Necrosis Factor Alters T Cell Responses by Attenuating T Cell Receptor Signaling
Repeated injections of adult mice with recombinant murine TNF prolong the survival of NZB/W F1 mice, and suppress type I insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice. To determine whether repeated TNF injections suppress T cell function in adult mice, we studied the responses of influenza hemagglutinin-specific T cells derived from T cell receptor (HNT-TCR) transg...
