Major histocompatibility complex-restricted antigen receptor on T cells. VIII. Role of the LFA-1 molecule
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that the LFA-1 molecule on T cells does not play a role in the stimulation of T cell hybridomas by certain targets, namely antigen presented by L cell derivatives or polyvalent anti-receptor antibody. These results suggest that LFA-1 may act by binding to ligands that are not present on all cells. We hope this result will help us and others to establish the true role of LFA-1 in T cell responses.

Engagement of major histocompatibility complex class II molecules induces sustained, lymphocyte function-associated molecule 1-dependent cell adhesion
Antigenic stimulation is associated with enhanced adhesion between T cells and antigen-presenting cells (APC). Binding of ligands to the T cell antigen receptor activates the adhesion function of lymphocyte function-associated molecule 1 (LFA-1; CD11a/CD18). We demonstrate here that ligand binding to major histocompatibility complex class II (Ia) molecules also activates LFA-1 function, providi...

Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1), a member of beta2-integrin family, exerts multiple roles in host T cell immunity and has been identified as a useful drug-development target for inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Applying the findings that primary resting T cells absorb nanometric membrane vesicles derived from antigen presenting cells (APC) via dual receptor/ligand interact...

T cell recognition typically involves both the engagement of a specific T cell receptor with a peptide/major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and a number of accessory interactions. One of the most important interactions is between the integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) on the T cell and intracellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) on an antigen-presenting cell. By using fl...

To examine the role of lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) expression on murine B cells as it pertains to their function in T call activation, we carried out antigen-presentation assays in tissue culture wells coated with a purified, secreted form of the murine intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). We observed a significant decrease in the concentration of antigen required to...
متن کاملA novel integrin involved in thymocyte-thymic epithelial cell interactions
Thymocytes differentiate in the thymic microenvironment into immunocompetent T cell through the interaction with a variety of accessory cells, including thymic epithelial cells (TEC). TEC plays an important role in the selection process presenting self antigens in association with major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules to the maturing T cells. The T cell receptor recognizes the self a...
