Negative Regulation of T Cell Receptor–Lipid Raft Interaction by Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte–associated Antigen 4
Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) is an essential negative regulator of T cell activation. Recent evidence suggests that CTLA-4 association with the immunological synapse during contact with antigen-presenting cells is important for its inhibitory function. In the present study, we observed a direct interaction of CTLA-4 with the phosphorylated form of T cell receptor (TCR)ze...
متن کاملDevelopment of a dendritic cell vaccine encoding multiple cytotoxic T lymphocyte epitopes targeting hepatitis C virus.
The aim of the present study was to develop a dendritic cell (DC) vaccine encoding hepatitis C virus (HCV) multiple cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes that can stimulate T cell responses in vitro, and can be used for immunization in vivo. DCs were infected with recombinant replication-defective adenoviruses (Ads) expressing 2 HCV sequences fused with green fluorescent protein (GFP) and FLAG ...

Episialin (MUC1) inhibits cytotoxic lymphocyte-target cell interaction.
Episialin (MUC1) is a mucin-like glycoprotein abundantly expressed on most carcinoma cells. As a result of its extended and rigid structure, it reduces intercellular adhesion. We investigated whether this antiadhesion function allows tumor cells expressing high levels of episialin to escape from immune recognition. To test this hypothesis, we transfected episialin-negative (episialin-) melanoma...
متن کاملImmature Dendritic Cells Acquire Cd8+Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte Priming Capacity upon Activation by T Helper Cell–Independent or–Dependent Stimuli
The well defined, immature murine dendritic cell (DC) line D1 was used to study the role of DC maturation in CTL induction in vitro and in vivo. Maturation of D1 cells, characterized by markedly increased expression of MHC and costimulatory molecules, was induced by incubation with lipopolysaccharide, agonistic CD40 antibody, or specific CD4(+) T helper (Th) cells. Activated, but not immature, ...
