Signal transduction in T lymphocytes using a conditional allele of Sos.
While Ras activation has been shown to play an important role in signal transduction by the T-lymphocyte antigen receptor, the mechanism of its activation in T cells is unclear. Membrane localization of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Sos, but not Vav or Dbl, was sufficient for Ras-mediated signaling in T lymphocytes. Activation of Sos appears to involve membrane recruitment and not allo...
متن کاملSignal transduction in T lymphocytes.
T lymphocytes utilize a variety of surface receptors to transmit environmental signals across the plasma membrane and initiate biochemical events leading to responses such as proliferation, anergy, cytokine secretion, and death. The T cell receptor complex, CD28, IL-2 receptor, and CD95 each couple to distinct sets of cytoplasmic signaling events to modulate the biological responses of T cells....
متن کاملIon channels and signal transduction in lymphocytes.
T and B lymphocytes play fundamental and diverse roles in the immune response, which include recognition of antigens, secretion of lymphokines and antibodies, and killing of foreign or virus-infected cells. Ionic fluxes associated with lymphocyte activation, mitogenesis, and volume regulation have been studied extensively in cell suspensions (for reviews, see 67, 103, 124, Grinstein & Foskett, ...
متن کاملSignal transduction in T cells.
Rapid progress was made during the past year in the delineation of the nature of the initial biochemical events triggered by the T-cell antigen receptor. Antigen-mediated activation of phospholipase C was demonstrated to require protein tyrosine phosphorylation and, most surprising, activation of the Ras family of signal transduction molecules was shown to closely follow stimulation of the T-ce...
متن کاملChanges in expression of signal transduction proteins in T lymphocytes of patients with leprosy.
Advanced stages of mycobacterial diseases such as leprosy and tuberculosis are characterized by a loss of T-cell function. The basis of this T-cell dysfunction is not well understood. The present report demonstrates major alterations in the expression of signal transduction molecules in T cells of leprosy patients. These alterations were most frequently observed in lepromatous leprosy (LL) pati...
