T cell receptor signaling precedes immunological synapse formation.

open access: yes, 2002
The area of contact between a T cell and an antigen-presenting cell (APC) is known as the immunological synapse. Although its exact function is unknown, one model suggests that it allows for T cell receptor (TCR) clustering and for sustained signaling in

LIM and SH3 protein 1 deficiency confers resistance to cytotoxic lymphocyte-mediated lysis and immunotherapy in gastric cancer by disrupting cytoskeleton dynamics

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
Background A substantial amount of research has been dedicated to the mechanisms by which tumor cells evade immune system recognition and manipulate the immune microenvironment to facilitate immune escape.

CCR7 Is Recruited to the Immunological Synapse, Acts as Co-stimulatory Molecule and Drives LFA-1 Clustering for Efficient T Cell Adhesion Through ZAP70

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The chemokine receptor CCR7 guides T cells and dendritic cells to and within lymph nodes to launch the onset of adaptive immunity. Here, we demonstrate that CCR7 in addition acts as a potent co-stimulatory molecule in T cell activation.

Understanding the structure and function of the immunological synapse.

open access: yes, 2010
The immunological synapse has been an area of very active scientific interest over the last decade. Surprisingly, much about the synapse remains unknown or is controversial.

Masters of manipulation: Viral modulation of the immunological synapse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
In order to thrive, viruses have evolved to manipulate host cell machinery for their own benefit. One major obstacle faced by pathogens is the immunological synapse.

Bacteria‐Trained, MnO2‐Armored Dendritic Cells for Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
MnO2‐armored, bacteria‐trained dendritic cells undergo tumor‐responsive mechanical and immunological transformation. The nanocoating masks immune ligands and maintains a mechanically stiff, quiescent state during circulation, while the tumor microenvironment removes the armor and restores cellular deformability and immune accessibility.

Microtubule dynamics and signal transduction at the immunological synapse: new partners and new connections.

open access: yes, 2012
International audienceAntigen recognition induces T cells to polarize towards antigen presenting cells (APC) generating an organized cell interface named the immunological synapse. T-cell microtubules (MTs) reorient the MT-organizing centre (MTOC) to the

Gonadotropin‐Inhibitory Hormone (GnIH) and Its Receptor GPR147 Mediates Acute Stress‐Induced Activation of the Locus Coeruleus‐SAM Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gonadotropin‐inhibitory hormone (GnIH, also known as RFamide‐related peptide‐3, RFRP‐3) is a hypothalamic neuropeptide that regulates vertebrate reproduction via its receptor GPR147. Although GnIH is known to mediate stress‐induced reproductive suppression, its role in broader stress responses remains unclear.

From tango to quadrilla: current views of the immunological synapse

open access: yes, 2007
All T cell functions require establishing contacts with other cells. In the last ten years, the immunological synapse, the contact-site between T cells and their partners, has been the object of numerous investigations and recent advances in imaging ...
