CD8+ CD28− and CD8+ CD57+ T cells and their role in health and disease

open access: yesImmunology, 2011
Chronic antigenic stimulation leads to gradual accumulation of late-differentiated, antigen-specific, oligoclonal T cells, particularly within the CD8(+) T-cell compartment. They are characterized by critically shortened telomeres, loss of CD28 and/or gain of CD57 expression and are defined as either CD8(+) CD28(-) or CD8(+) CD57(+) T lymphocytes ...

Case Report: Early presentation of hereditary angioedema symptoms in a 2-year-old boy

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare autosomal-dominant disease that is caused by a deficiency (type I) or dysfunction (type II) of the C1 inhibitor (C1-INH) due to a mutation in the SERPING1 gene, which codes for C1-INH.

Inflaming the CD8+ T Cell Response [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2006
Although inflammatory cytokines induced by infection or vaccination with adjuvants have long been known to stimulate optimal antigen-presenting cell function, recent evidence indicates that some inflammatory cytokines also act directly on the responding T cells to control their response to infection.

Brain Autoimmunity: The CD8 Question(s) [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2012
In this issue of Immunity, Na et al. (2012) show that the purging of central nervous system (CNS)-specific CD8(+) T cell repertoire requires direct contact with antigen expressing oligodendrocytes and inflammation tips the balance toward autoimmunity.

Distribution of melanocytes in the skin of psoriasis patients

open access: yesVestnik Dermatologii i Venerologii, 2019
Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disease with predominant damage to the skin and joints. Despite fundamental studies of its pathogenesis, the cause of the development of the T-cell response has not been determined. More recently, a new

Dichotomy of two CD8+ lymphocyte subsets in HIV infection. Depletion of CD8+ CD3- and expansion of CD8+ CD3+ subsets: consequence on the CD4/CD8 ratio

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Immunology, 1991
SUMMARYIn order to highlight the underlying mechanism(s) of the CD8 lymphocyte expansion in the HIV infection, two distinct CD8 subsets were analysed: T CD8bright+ CD3+ with MHC-restricted activity, and non-T CD8dim+ CD3-, which performs natural killer (NK) activity.

Imaging the Effector CD8 Synapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Here, we describe 4D imaging of effector CD8+ T cells as they conjugate and kill live targets in vitro and analyze the polarization dynamics of intracellular compartments to this cell-cell interface.

Defining Memory CD8 T Cell [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
CD8 T cells comprising the memory pool display considerable heterogeneity, with individual cells differing in phenotype and function. This review will focus on our current understanding of heterogeneity within the antigen-specific memory CD8 T cell compartment and classifications of memory CD8 T cell subsets with defined and discrete functionalities ...

Formation and phenotypic characterization of CD49a, CD49b and CD103 expressing CD8 T cell populations in human metastatic melanoma

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2018
Integrins α1β1 (CD49a), α2β1 (CD49b) and αEβ7 (CD103) mediate retention of lymphocytes in peripheral tissues, and their expression is upregulated on tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) compared to circulating lymphocytes.

Peripheral Tolerance of CD8 T Lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2005
Whereas high-avidity recognition of peptide-MHC complexes by developing T cells in the thymus results in deletion and promotes self-tolerance, such recognition by mature T cells in the periphery results in activation and clonal expansion. This dichotomy represents the basis of a dilemma that has stumped immunologists for many years, how are self ...
