Role of interferon-γ and cytotoxic T lymphocytes in intraocular tumor rejection.
The eye is normally an immunosuppressive environment. This condition is better known as immune privilege and protects the eye from immune-mediated inflammation of tissues that cannot regenerate. However, immune privilege creates a dilemma for the eye when intraocular neoplasms arise. In some cases, immune privilege is suspended, resulting in the immune rejection of intraocular tumors. This stud...
متن کاملThe role of cytotoxic T lymphocytes in corneal allograft rejection.
PURPOSE Immunologic rejection constitutes a major barrier to the success of allogeneic corneal transplants, but the specific mediators and mechanisms of graft rejection are poorly understood. Several studies have implicated cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) responses, typically associated with CD8(+) T cells, in promoting corneal graft rejection. This study sought to test the hypothesis that CTLs ar...
متن کاملA new tumor-rejection antigen recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes infiltrating into a lung adenocarcinoma.
Lung cancer is the most commonly occurring malignancy worldwide and one of the few that continues to show an increasing incidence. To understand the molecular basis of host immunity against lung cancer, we investigated tumor antigens recognized by HLA-A24-restricted CTLs established from T cells infiltrating into lung adenocarcinoma and report a new gene coding for antigens recognized by the CT...
متن کاملRole of CD8 in Aberrant Function of Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes
Using H-2Kd-restricted photoprobe-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) clones, which permit assessment of T cell receptor (TCR)-ligand interactions by TCR photoaffinity labeling, we observed that the efficiency of antigen recognition by CTL was critically dependent on the half-life of TCR-ligand complexes. We show here that antigen recognition by CTL is essentially determined by the frequency ...
متن کاملMolecular Imaging in Tracking Tumor-Specific Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes (CTLs)
Despite the remarkable progress of adoptive T cell therapy in cancer treatment, there remains an urgent need for the noninvasive tracking of the transfused T cells in patients to determine their biodistribution, viability, and functionality. With emerging molecular imaging technologies and cell-labeling methods, noninvasive in vivo cell tracking is experiencing impressive progress toward reveal...
