T-cell antigen receptor genes and T-cell recognition [PDF]
The four distinct T-cell antigen receptor polypeptides (alpha, beta, gamma, delta) form two different heterodimers (alpha:beta and gamma:delta) that are very similar to immunoglobulins in primary sequence, gene organization and modes of rearrangement.

Chimeric antigen receptors that trigger phagocytosis
Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are synthetic receptors that reprogram T cells to kill cancer. The success of CAR-T cell therapies highlights the promise of programmed immunity and suggests that applying CAR strategies to other immune cell lineages may

Chimeric non-antigen receptors in T cell-based cancer therapy
Adoptively transferred T cell-based cancer therapies have shown incredible promise in treatment of various cancers. So far therapeutic strategies using T cells have focused on manipulation of the antigen-recognition machinery itself, such as through ...

Toward high-throughput engineering techniques for improving CAR intracellular signaling domains
Chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) are generated by linking extracellular antigen recognition domains with one or more intracellular signaling domains derived from the T-cell receptor complex or various co-stimulatory receptors.

[Chimeric antigen receptor T cells].
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T-cells) therapies which are genetically modified T lymphocyte targeting tumor antigens have modified therapeutic landscape in hematology. Aggressive B cells lymphoma are currently treated in daily practice with anti-CD19 CAR T.

Long-term outcomes following CAR T cell therapy: what we know so far
Chimeric antigen receptors (CAR) are engineered fusion proteins designed to target T cells to antigens expressed on cancer cells. CAR T cells are now an established treatment for patients with relapsed and/or refractory B cell lymphomas, B cell acute ...

Coexpression of PD-1, 2B4, CD160 and KLRG1 on exhausted HCV-specific CD8+ T cells is linked to antigen recognition and T cell differentiation. [PDF]
Exhausted CD8+ T cell responses during chronic viral infections are defined by a complex expression pattern of inhibitory receptors. However, very little information is currently available about the coexpression patterns of these receptors on human virus-

A transfer-learning approach to predict antigen immunogenicity and T-cell receptor specificity
Antigen immunogenicity and the specificity of binding of T-cell receptors to antigens are key properties underlying effective immune responses. Here we propose diffRBM, an approach based on transfer learning and Restricted Boltzmann Machines, to build ...
