Glycosylation of the T-cell antigen-specific receptor and its potential role in lectin-mediated cytotoxicity.
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) normally destroy only those cells ("target cells") whose surface antigens they recognize. However, in the presence of lectins such as Con A, CTLs destroy virtually any cell, regardless of its antigens. The oligosaccharides of the T-cell antigen-specific receptor, a dimeric surface glycoprotein composed of disulfide-linked alpha and beta subunits, are of interest b...
متن کاملT cells and T cell tumors efficiently generate antigen-specific cytotoxic T cell immunity when modified with an NKT ligand
Various Invariant NKT (iNKT) cell ligands have been shown as potent adjuvants in boosting T cell reactivates to antigens on professional APC. Non-professional APC, such as T cells, also co-expressing MHC class I and CD1d, have been unattractive cell vaccine carriers due to their poor immunogenicity. Here, we report that T cells as well as T cell lymphoma can efficiently generate antigen-specifi...
متن کاملSterilizing immunity to influenza virus infection requires local antigen-specific T cell response in the lungs
Sterilizing immunity is a unique immune status, which prevents effective virus infection into the host. It is different from the immunity that allows infection but with subsequent successful eradication of the virus. Pre-infection induces sterilizing immunity to homologous influenza virus challenge in ferret. In our antigen-specific experimental system, mice pre-infected with PR8 influenza viru...
متن کاملDendritic cell and antigen dispersal landscapes regulate T cell immunity
Dendritic cell (DC) subsets with biased capacity for CD4+ and CD8+ T cell activation are asymmetrically distributed in lymph nodes (LNs), but how this affects adaptive responses has not been extensively studied. Here we used quantitative imaging to examine the relationships among antigen dispersal, DC positioning, and T cell activation after protein immunization. Antigens rapidly drained into L...
متن کاملAntigen-specific T-T interactions regulate CD4 T-cell expansion.
The regulation of CD4 T-cell numbers during an immune response should take account of the amount of antigen (Ag), the initial frequency of Ag-specific T cells, the mix of naive versus experienced cells, and (ideally) the diversity of the repertoire. Here we describe a novel mechanism of T-cell regulation that potentially deals with all of these parameters. We found that CD4 T cells establish a ...
