Differences in antigen recognition and cytolytic activity of CD8 + and CD8 T cells that express the same antigen-specific receptor [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2001
CD8 + and CD8 − T cell lines expressing the same antigen-specific receptor [the 2C T cell receptor (TCR)] were compared for ability to bind soluble peptide-MHC and to lyse target cells.

CD8 Co-Receptor Enhances T-Cell Activation without Any Effect on Initial Attachment

open access: yesCells, 2021
The scanning of surrounding tissues by T lymphocytes to detect cognate antigens requires high speed, sensitivity and specificity. T-cell receptor (TCR) co-receptors such as CD8 increase detection performance, but the exact mechanism remains incompletely ...

Dendritic Cells and CD8 T Cell Immunity in Tumor Microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the regulation of the balance between CD8 T cell immunity vs. tolerance to tumor antigens. Cross-priming, a process which DCs activate CD8 T cells by cross-presenting exogenous antigens, plays a critical role ...

Analysis of TCR Repertoire and PD-1 Expression in Decidual and Peripheral CD8+ T Cells Reveals Distinct Immune Mechanisms in Miscarriage and Preeclampsia

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
CD8+ T cells, the most abundant T cell subset in the decidua, play a critical role in the maintenance of pregnancy. The majority of decidual CD8+ T cells have an effector memory phenotype, while those in the peripheral blood display a naive phenotype. An

Non-antigen specific CD8+ T suppressor lymphocytes

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Medicine, 2004
The homeostasis of peripheral immune system function is maintained by the activity of regulatory lymphocytes. Among these cells, a subset of CD8+CD28- T suppressor lymphocytes has recently been characterized for the capacity to mediate their effects without antigen restriction.

Proteogenomic identification of an immunogenic antigen derived from human endogenous retrovirus in renal cell carcinoma

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2023
CD8+ T cells can recognize tumor antigens displayed by HLA class I molecules and eliminate tumor cells. Despite their low tumor mutation burden, immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) is often beneficial in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Here, using

Antigen delivery to dendritic cells shapes human CD4+ and CD8+ T cell memory responses to Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
Intracellular persistence of Staphylococcus aureus favors bacterial spread and chronic infections. Here, we provide evidence for the existence of human CD4+ and CD8+ T cell memory against staphylococcal antigens.

Autoregulatory CD8 T cells depend on cognate antigen recognition and CD4/CD8 myelin determinants [PDF]

open access: yesNeurology Neuroimmunology & Neuroinflammation, 2015
To determine the antigenic determinants and specific molecular requirements for the generation of autoregulatory neuroantigen-specific CD8(+) T cells in models of multiple sclerosis (MS).We have previously shown that MOG35-55-specific CD8(+) T cells suppress experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in the C57BL/6 model.

Antigen and Memory CD8 T Cells: Were They Both Right? [PDF]

open access: yesAllergy, Asthma, and Clinical Immunology, 2007
Abstract Picture yourself as a researcher in immunology. To begin your project, you ask a question: Do CD8 T cells require antigen to maintain a memory response? This question is of prime importance to numerous medical fields. In chronologic order, you digest the literature, but unfortunately, you hit a major stumbling block in the 1990s. The

Potential Mimicry of Viral and Pancreatic β Cell Antigens Through Non-Spliced and cis-Spliced Zwitter Epitope Candidates in Type 1 Diabetes

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Increasing evidence suggests that post-translational peptide splicing can play a role in the immune response under pathological conditions. This seems to be particularly relevant in Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) since post-translationally spliced epitopes ...
