gamma/delta T lymphocytes express CD40 ligand and induce isotype switching in B lymphocytes
T cells expressing gamma/delta T cell receptors home to epithelial tissue and may play a role in immunity to infectious agents and foreign antigens. In an effort to understand the role of gamma/delta T cells in directing B cell responses, we investigated the capacity of human gamma/delta T cells to express CD40 ligand (CD40L) and to drive immunoglobulin (Ig) isotype switching in B cells. A mult...
متن کاملcd40 ligand expression on stimulated t-helper lymphocytes in patients with common variable immunodeficiency
common variable immunodeficiency (cvid) is the most common symptomatic primary antibody deficiency, characterized by reduced serum immunoglobulins levels and increased susceptibility to recurrent pyogenic infections. in this study, we evaluated cd40 ligand expression on stimulated versus unstimulated t-helper lymphocytes of nine common variable immunodeficient patients in comparison with fiftee...
متن کاملRecruitment of γδ T lymphocytes to tumors
Despite the promise of targeting γδ T cells for cancer immunotherapy, the mechanisms underpinning the recruitment of this T-cell subsets to neoplastic lesions remain poorly understood. We have recently identified the pro-inflammatory chemokine CCL2 and its receptor CCR2 as key molecular determinants of γδ T-cell migration and tumor infiltration.
متن کاملTumor cell recognition by γδ T lymphocytes
The dissection of the molecular mechanisms underlying tumor-cell recognition by γδ T-cells is crucial to improve their performance in cancer immunotherapy. Here, we discuss the controversy around the relative contributions of the γδ T-cell receptor (TCR) and natural killer receptors (NKRs) to tumor-cell targeting by γδ T cells.
متن کاملInterleukin-10 induces immunoglobulin G isotype switch recombination in human CD40-activated naive B lymphocytes
Upon activation, B lymphocytes can change the isotype of the antibody they express by immunoglobulin (Ig) isotype switch recombination. In previous studies on the regulation of human IgG expression, we demonstrated that interleukin 10 (IL-10) could stimulate IgG1 and IgG3 secretion by human CD40-activated naive (sIgD+) tonsillar B cells. To assess whether IL-10 actually promotes the DNA recombi...
