The T-Cell Response to Lipid Antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
T-cells recognize lipid antigens presented by dedicated antigen-presenting molecules that belong to the CD1 family. This review discusses the structural properties of CD1 molecules, the nature of mycobacterial lipid antigens, and the phenotypic and functional properties of T-cells recognizing mycobacterial lipids. In humans, the five CD1 genes encode structurally similar glycoproteins that recy...
متن کاملProfile of interleukin-2 production in human mononuclear cells and T-cell lines
Introduction: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) as a T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine has an important role Background and Objective: Interleukin-2 (IL-2) as a T helper type 1 (Th1) cytokine has an important role in activation, growth and differentiation of several immune cells. Moreover IL-2 is known as a pro-inflammatory and anti-tumoral cytokine. In addition deysregulation of IL-2 in some diseases such as ...
متن کاملHomologous Mouse and Human T Cell Antigens
The mouse Lyt-1, Lyt-2, and Lyt-3 lymphocyte surface antigens have been used for some years now as immunogenet ic markers whose selective expression distinguishes maturat ional and functional T cell subpopulations (1, 2). Lyt-2 and Lyt-3, for example, are selectively expressed on cytotoxic and suppressor T cells but are not found on helper T cells (3, 4). Similarly, cytotoxic depletion studies ...
متن کاملHealthy Human T-Cell Responses to Aspergillus fumigatus Antigens
BACKGROUND Aspergillus fumigatus is associated with both invasive and allergic pulmonary diseases, in different hosts. The organism is inhaled as a spore, which, if not cleared from the airway, germinates into hyphal morphotypes that are responsible for tissue invasion and resultant inflammation. Hyphae secrete multiple products that function as antigens, evoking both a protective (T(H)1-T(H)17...
متن کاملRegulation of the B cell response to T-dependent antigens by classical pathway complement.
Mice deficient in complement components C3 (C3 -/-) and C4 (C4 -/-) were found to have a profound defect in their Ab response to a T-dependent Ag (bacteriophage (phi X174). Characterization of the deficient mice demonstrated a diminished level of peanut agglutinin+ germinal centers and a failure in isotype switching despite normal B cell signaling in vitro. The nature of the defect was found to...
