A Functionally Superior Second-Generation Vector Expressing an Aurora Kinase-A-Specific T-Cell Receptor for Anti-Leukaemia Adoptive Immunotherapy. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Aurora Kinase A is a cancer-associated protein normally involved in the regulation of mitosis. Being over-expressed in a range of cancers, it is a suitable target for cell-based immunotherapy. Gene transfer of T-cell receptor sequences cognisant of HLA-A*

Breast cancer is marked by specific, Public T-cell receptor CDR3 regions shared by mice and humans.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2021 The partial success of tumor immunotherapy induced by checkpoint blockade, which is not antigen-specific, suggests that the immune system of some patients contain antigen receptors able to specifically identify tumor cells.

Rearrangement and expression of the antigen receptor alpha, beta and gamma genes in suppressor antigen-specific T cell lines. [PDF]
The EMBO Journal, 1985 The rearrangement and transcription of the antigen receptor alpha, beta and gamma genes were investigated in murine antigen-specific suppressor T cell lines, to establish whether the suppressor T cell subset expresses the same antigen receptor transcripts previously found in helper and cytotoxic T lymphocytes.

Expression of two distinct T cell receptor alpha/beta heterodimers by an antigen-specific T cell clone. [PDF]
The Journal of experimental medicine, 1988 A cytochrome c-specific, MHC-restricted T cell clone with two complete rearrangements of the same V beta 1 gene element was shown to express two different TCR alpha/beta heterodimers. Antipeptide antisera specific for TCR C beta 1 and C beta 2 peptides each immunoprecipitated distinct disulfide-linked cell surface heterodimers.

Targeting the melanoma-associated antigen CSPG4 with HLA-C*07:01-restricted T-cell receptors
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 IntorductionChondroitin sulfate proteoglycan 4 (CSPG4), also known as high molecular weight-melanoma associated antigen, is expressed in melanoma but also other tumor entities and constitutes an attractive target for immunotherapeutic approaches.

Alterations of T cell receptor Vβ repertoire of CD8 T lymphocytes in immune tolerance induction in two hemophilia A patients with inhibitors [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2011 Background/Aim. Hemophilia A patients with inhibitors are treated effectively with immune tolerance induction (ITI) therapy. Although anti-idiotypic antibodies may play a certain role in the underlying mechanism, the detailed mechanism by which ITI ...

A Strategy for Selective Deletion of Autoimmunity-Related T Cells by pMHC-Targeted Delivery
Pharmaceutics, 2021 Autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis are caused by immune system recognition of self-proteins and subsequent production of effector T cells that recognize and attack healthy tissue.

The myeloid receptor PILRβ mediates the balance of inflammatory responses through regulation of IL-27 production. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Paired immunoglobulin-like receptors beta, PILRβ, and alpha, PILRα, are related to the Siglec family of receptors and are expressed primarily on cells of the myeloid lineage.
