Lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus induces systemic lymphocyte activation via TLR7-dependent IFNalpha responses by plasmacytoid dendritic cells. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Lactate dehydrogenase-elevating virus (LDV) is a natural infectious agent of mice. Like several other viruses, LDV causes widespread and very rapid but transient activation of both B cells and T cells in lymphoid tissues and the blood.

Background Immunotherapy based on checkpoint inhibitors is highly effective in mismatch repair deficient (MMRd) colorectal cancer (CRC). These tumors carry a high number of mutations, which are predicted to translate into a wide array of neoepitopes ...

The cytolytic T lymphocyte response to the murine cytomegalovirus [PDF]
Limiting dilution (LD) analysis with two modifications, the expansion and the restimulation LD assay, led to the detection and quantification of two distinct in vivo maturation stages within the lineage of virus- specific self-restricted CTL after ...

Tissue typing by unidirectional mixed lymphocyte culture. 3. The relationship of in vitro lymphocyte compatibility to renal allograft rejection [PDF]
We applied unidirectional MLC test to renal allograft in dogs, and investigated the correlation between the growth rates of MLC reaction and the intensity of rejection of the kidney transplants or the postoperative renal function.

FLUORESCENT PROTEINS USING FOR LYMPHOCYTE ACTIVATION ASSAYING [PDF]
Activation of immune cells is a key process in development of the specific immunity. The techniques for monitoring of the movement and the activity of signalling messengers and receptor proteins of lymphocytes in living cells and tissues are the ...

Rapid and long-term disappearance of CD4+ T lymphocyte responses specific for Anaplasma marginale major surface protein-2 (MSP2) in MSP2 vaccinates following challenge with live A. marginale [PDF]
In humans and ruminants infected with Anaplasma, the major surface protein 2 (MSP2) is immunodominant. Numerous CD4(+) T cell epitopes in the hypervariable and conserved regions of MSP2 contribute to this immunodominance.

A nongenomic mechanism for progesterone-mediated immunosuppression: Inhibition of K+ channels, Ca2+ signaling, and gene expression in T lymphocytes [PDF]
The mechanism by which progesterone causes localized suppression of the immune response during pregnancy has remained elusive. Using human T lymphocytes and T cell lines, we show that progesterone, at concentrations found in the placenta, rapidly and ...

Novel disulfide bond-mediated dimerization of the CARD domain was revealed by the crystal structure of CARMA1 CARD. [PDF]
CARMA1, BCL10 and MALT1 form a large molecular complex known as the CARMA1 signalosome during lymphocyte activation. Lymphocyte activation via the CARMA1 signalosome is critical to immune response and linked to many immune diseases. Despite the important
