Crystalline silica activates the T-cell and the B-cell antigen receptor complexes and induces T-cell and B-cell proliferation

Autoimmunity, 2019
Silicosis is an occupational fibrotic lung disease, which is associated with an increased incidence of autoimmune diseases. The effect of crystalline silica on the immune system is thought to be mediated by the antigen presenting cells.

The transcriptional activator Gli2 modulates T-cell receptor signalling through attenuation of AP-1 and NFκ-B activity. [PDF]

, 2015
Different tissues contain diverse and dynamic cellular niches, providing distinct signals to tissue-resident or migratory, infiltrating immune cells.

Co-receptor CD8-mediated modulation of T-cell receptor functional sensitivity and epitope recognition degeneracy [PDF]

, 2013
The interaction between T-cell receptors (TCRs) and peptide epitopes is highly degenerate: a TCR is capable of interacting productively with a wide range of different peptide ligands, involving not only cross-reactivity proper (similar epitopes elicit ...

A role for the extracellular calcium-sensing receptor in cell-cell communication in pancreatic islets of Langerhans [PDF]

, 2008
Background: The extracellular calcium-sensing receptor (CaR) is expressed in many tissues that are not associated with Ca2+ homeostasis, including the endocrine cells in pancreatic islets of Langerhans.

Conditional immortalization of human B cells by CD40 ligation [PDF]

, 2008
It is generally assumed that human differentiated cells have a limited life-span and proliferation capacity in vivo, and that genetic modifications are a prerequisite for their immortalization in vitro.

B Cell Receptor Signaling and Protein Kinase D2 Support Regulatory B Cell Function in Pancreatic Cancer

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
B cells can act as potent suppressors of anti-tumor T cell immunity, presenting a mechanism of resistance to immunotherapy. In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, B cells can display a T cell-suppressive or regulatory phenotype centered on the expression ...
