Origins of CD4(+) effector and central memory T cells. [PDF]
Lineage-committed effector CD4(+) T cells are generated at the peak of the primary response and are followed by heterogeneous populations of central and effector memory cells. Here we review the evidence that T helper type 1 (T(H)1) effector cells survive the contraction phase of the primary response and become effector memory cells.

Rapid Transduction and Expansion of Transduced T Cells with Maintenance of Central Memory Populations [PDF]
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cells show great promise in treating cancers and viral infections. However, most protocols developed to expand T cells require relatively long periods of time in culture, potentially leading to progression toward ...

Differential Contributions of Central and Effector Memory T Cells to Recall Responses [PDF]
Although the absolute number of memory CD8+ T cells established in the spleen following antigen encounter remains stable for many years, the relative capacity of these cells to mediate recall responses is not known. Here we used a dual adoptive transfer approach to demonstrate a progressive increase in the quality of memory T cell pools in terms of ...

Cytokine-Driven Proliferation and Differentiation of Human Naive, Central Memory, and Effector Memory CD4+ T Cells [PDF]
Memory T lymphocytes proliferate in vivo in the absence of antigen maintaining a pool of central memory T cells (TCM) and effector memory T cells (TEM) with distinct effector function and homing capacity. We compared human CD4+ naive T, TCM, and TEM cells for their capacity to proliferate in response to cytokines, that have been implicated in T cell ...

Central memory T cells are the most effective precursors of resident memory T cells in human skin. [PDF]
The circulating precursor cells that give rise to human resident memory T cells (T RM ) are poorly characterized. We used an in vitro differentiation system and human skin–grafted mice to study T RM generation from circulating human memory T cell subsets. In vitro T RM

CD8+CD122+ T-cells: a newly emerging regulator with central memory cell phenotypes [PDF]
CD8+CD122+ T-cells have been traditionally described as antigen-specific memory T-cells that respond to previously encountered antigens more quickly and vigorously than their naïve counterparts.

Smad4 represses the generation of memory-precursor effector T cells but is required for the differentiation of central memory T cells. [PDF]
Abstract The transcriptional regulation underlying the differentiation of CD8 + effector and memory T cells remains elusive. Here, we show that 18-month-old mice lacking the transcription factor Smad4 (homolog 4 of mothers against decapentaplegic ...

A CD45RO+ stem cell memory T cell population intermediate to canonical stem cell memory and central memory T cells in human cancer. [PDF]
Abstract T memory stem cells (Tscm) are integral for effective immunotherapy and antitumor responses, but little is known about Tscm immunobiology in solid human tumors. Here we identify self-renewing and multipotent Tscm tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in human cancer and present a novel Tscm subset which expresses CD45RO, is derived ...

Extensive Replicative Capacity of Human Central Memory T Cells [PDF]
Abstract To characterize the replicative capacity of human central memory (TCM) CD4 T cells, we have developed a defined culture system optimized for the ex vivo expansion of Ag-specific CD4+ T cells. Artificial APCs (aAPCs) consisting of magnetic beads coated with Abs to HLA class II and a costimulatory Ab to CD28 were prepared ...
