Modulation of promiscuous T cell receptor recognition by mutagenesis of CDR2 residues.

Modulation of promiscuous T cell receptor recognition by mutagenesis of CDR2 residues

The T cell receptor (TCR) recognizes a ligand composed of a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecule and a peptide antigen. Prior studies of murine T cell clones have demonstrated that residues in the CDR3 region of TCR interact with amino acids in the peptide during MHC-restricted antigen recognition. However, the questions of whether direct TCR MHC contacts are made and where such cont...

Modulation of CD4+ T Cell Subsets by Euphorbia microciadia and Euphorbia osyridea Plant Extracts

Background: Euphorbia plants are traditionally used in folk medicine for infections, inflammation, and cancer. Objectives: To investigate the effects of the butanolic extracts of Euphorbia micorociadia and Euphorbia osyridea on specific transcription factors and cytokines expression of T cell subsets. Methods: Activated mouse splenocytes were cultured in the presence of non-cytotoxic concentrat...

Modulation of T-cell mediated immunity by dopamine receptor d5.

CD4+ T-cells are central players orchestrating antigen-specific immunity and tolerance. Importantly, dendritic cells (DCs) are responsible for priming T-cells and for promoting their differentiation from naïve T-cells into appropriate functional cells. Because of their fundamental roles in controlling immunity, activation and differentiation of DCs and CD4+ T-cells require tight regulatory mech...

control of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
