Neuroinflammation by cytotoxic T-lymphocytes impairs retrograde axonal transport in an oligodendrocyte mutant mouse [PDF]
Mice overexpressing proteolipid protein (PLP) develop a leukodystrophy-like disease involving cytotoxic, CD8+ T-lymphocytes. Here we show that these cytotoxic T-lymphocytes perturb retrograde axonal transport.

Development of classical Hodgkin’s lymphoma in an adult with biallelic STXBP2 mutations [PDF]
Experimental model systems have delineated an important role for cytotoxic lymphocytes in the immunosurveillance of cancer. In humans, perforin-deficiency has been associated with occurrence of hematologic malignancies.

Adoptive cancer immunotherapy using DNA-demethylated T helper cells as antigen-presenting cells [PDF]
A critical determinant of tumor eradication by adoptive immunotherapy is the tumor associated antigen recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes. Here the authors generate ex vivo autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes by exposure to antigens induced by DNA ...

Perforin, granzyme B, and FasL expression by peripheral blood T lymphocytes in emphysema [PDF]
Background It is generally accepted that emphysematous lungs are characterized by an increase in the numbers of neutrophils, macrophages, and CD8+ T lymphocytes, the lasts having increased cytotoxic activity.

Resistance of cytotoxic T lymphocytes to lysis by a clone of cytotoxic T lymphocytes. [PDF]
To investigate how cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) avoid killing themselves when they destroy target cells, we compared 20 different cell lines as target cells, including several CTL cell lines, for their susceptibility to lysis by CTL. Variations in recognition of this diverse set of target cells was circumvented by attaching to all of them a monoclonal

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes could contribute in COVID-19-induced passing anosmia
Several clinical reports have demonstrated a spectrum of neurological manifestations of COVID-19 patients with subsequent post-mortem neuropathological findings. The aim of the case description is to show spotty inflammatory lesions in the olfactory bulb,

High Glucose Enhances Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte-Mediated Cytotoxicity [PDF]
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are key players to eliminate tumorigenic or pathogen-infected cells using lytic granules (LG) and Fas ligand (FasL) pathways. Depletion of glucose leads to severely impaired cytotoxic function of CTLs. However, the impact of excessive glucose on CTL functions still remains largely unknown.

Cytotoxic Granule Trafficking and Fusion in Synaptotagmin7-Deficient Cytotoxic T Lymphocytes
Granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are derived from the lysosomal compartment. Synaptotagmin7 (Syt7) appears to be the calcium sensor triggering fusion of lysosomes in fibroblasts. Syt7 has been proposed to control cytotoxic granule (CG) fusion in
