Immunodominance of lytic cycle antigens in Epstein-Barr virus-specific CD4+ T cell preparations for therapy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2007
BackgroundEpstein-Barr virus (EBV) is associated with a number of human malignancies. EBV-positive post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease in solid organ and hematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients has been successfully treated by the adoptive ...

Cysticercus cellulosae Regulates T-Cell Responses and Interacts With the Host Immune System by Excreting and Secreting Antigens

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Cysticercus cellulosae (C. cellulosae) excretes and secretes antigens during the parasitic process to regulate the host immune response; however, resulting immune response and cytokine production in the host during infection still remains unclear.

Comprehensive analysis of mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen-specific CD4+ T cell responses restricted by single HLA class II allotype in an individual

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection is generally asymptomatic as latent tuberculosis, but it is still known as the world’s leading bacterial cause of death.

Bystander CD4+ T cells infiltrate human tumors and are phenotypically distinct

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2022
Tumor-specific T cells likely underpin effective immune checkpoint-blockade therapies. Yet, most studies focus on Treg cells and CD8+ tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs).

Identification of CD4+ T cell epitopes in C. burnetii antigens targeted by antibody responses. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular gram-negative bacterium that causes acute Q fever and chronic infections in humans. A killed, whole cell vaccine is efficacious, but vaccination can result in severe local or systemic adverse reactions ...

Antigens for CD4 and CD8 T Cells in Tuberculosis [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2014
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), represents an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide for which an improved vaccine and immunodiagnostics are urgently needed. CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells play an important role in host defense to TB.

Screening of human tumor antigens for CD4 T cell epitopes by combination of HLA-transgenic mice, recombinant adenovirus and antigen peptide libraries. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: As tumor antigen-specific CD4+ T cells can mediate strong therapeutic anti-tumor responses in melanoma patients we set out to establish a comprehensive screening strategy for the identification of tumor-specific CD4+ T cell epitopes suitable ...

How Thymocyte Deletion in the Cortex May Curtail Antigen-Specific T-Regulatory Cell Development in the Medulla

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
CD4+ T cell responses to self-antigens are pivotal for immunological self-tolerance. Activation of Foxp3– T-conventional (T-conv) cells can precipitate autoimmune disease, whereas activation of Foxp3+ T-regulatory (T-reg) cells is essential to prevent ...

Dynamic Adoption of Anergy by Antigen-Exhausted CD4+ T Cells [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2021
Abstract Exhausted immune responses to chronic diseases represent a major challenge to global health. To explore their cell fate and plasticity in exhaustion, we analyzed CD4+T cells in a mouse model with regulatable antigen presentation.
