T-cell antigen receptor genes and T-cell recognition [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1988
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.

The second touch hypothesis: T cell activation, homing and polarization [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2w7]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
The second touch hypothesis states that T cell activation, proliferation, induction of homing receptors and polarization are distinguishable and, at least in part, sequential. The second touch hypothesis maintains that full T cell polarization requires T

Genetic Modification of Cytokine Signaling to Enhance Efficacy of CAR T Cell Therapy in Solid Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has shown unprecedented success in treating advanced hematological malignancies. Its effectiveness in solid tumors has been limited due to heterogeneous antigen expression, a suppressive tumor ...

On the Structure of the T-cell Receptor for Antigen

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 1977
Antigen-binding receptors of T lymphocytes were analyzed in two different ways. First, the idiotypic properties of T helper cells are studied using anti-idiotypic antisera prepared against isolated antibodies specific for A-CHO. These anti-idiotypic antisera are defined by immunogenetic and immunochemical means with respect to their reactivity with ...

Functional Specialty of CD40 and Dendritic Cell Surface Lectins for Exogenous Antigen Presentation to CD8+ and CD4+ T Cells

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2016
Dendritic cells (DCs) are major antigen-presenting cells that can efficiently prime and cross-prime antigen-specific T cells. Delivering antigen to DCs via surface receptors is thus an appealing strategy to evoke cellular immunity.

A BAFF ligand-based CAR-T cell targeting three receptors and multiple B cell cancers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Antigen escape represents a potential drawback of chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy targeting a single tumor-associated antigen. To reduce the risk of antigen escape, here the authors report the design and characterization of a BAFF ligand

Discovering immunoreceptor coupling and organization motifs

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
The recently determined cryo-EM structures of the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) and B cell antigen receptor (BCR) show in molecular details the interactions of the ligand-binding part with the signaling subunits but they do not reveal the signaling ...

CAR-T Cells: Precision Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesIndonesian Biomedical Journal, 2018
BACKGROUND: Current cancer drugs and treatments are aiming at eradicating tumor cells, but often are more toxic then effective, killing also the normal cells and not selectively the tumor cells.

Cancer Therapy With TCR-Engineered T Cells: Current Strategies, Challenges, and Prospects

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
To redirect T cells against tumor cells, T cells can be engineered ex vivo to express cancer-antigen specific T cell receptors (TCRs), generating products known as TCR-engineered T cells (TCR T).
