Genes Encoding the T-Cell Antigen Receptor
The search for the elusive and controversial T-cell antigen receptor is over. It is now clear that gene complexes for both alpha and beta chains are distinct from those for immunoglobulin genes. They are, however, related to Ig genes as well as to other class I and class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) gene products. Therefore, they belong to

Modeling interaction of Glioma cells and CAR T-cells considering multiple CAR T-cells bindings [PDF]
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell based immunotherapy has shown its potential in treating blood cancers, and its application to solid tumors is currently being extensively investigated. For glioma brain tumors, various CAR T-cell targets include IL13Ra2, EGFRvIII, HER2, EphA2, GD2, B7-H3, and chlorotoxin.

Synthetic TRuC receptors engaging the complete T cell receptor for potent anti-tumor response
T cells expressing CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) reveal high efficacy in the treatment of B cell malignancies. Here, we report that T cell receptor fusion constructs (TRuCs) comprising an antibody-based binding domain fused to T cell ...

Gene Expression-Based Identification of Antigen-Responsive CD8+ T Cells on a Single-Cell Level
CD8+ T cells are important effectors of adaptive immunity against pathogens, tumors, and self antigens. Here, we asked how human cognate antigen-responsive CD8+ T cells and their receptors could be identified in unselected single-cell gene expression ...

Large-scale GPU-based network analysis of the human T-cell receptor repertoire [PDF]
Understanding the structure of the human T-cell receptor repertoire is a crucial precondition to understand the ability of the immune system to recognize and respond to antigens. T-cells are often compared via the complementarity determining region 3 (CDR3) of their respective T-cell receptor beta chains.

Detecting T-cell receptors involved in immune responses from single repertoire snapshots [PDF]
Hypervariable T-cell receptors (TCR) play a key role in adaptive immunity, recognising a vast diversity of pathogen-derived antigens. High throughput sequencing of TCR repertoires (RepSeq) produces huge datasets of T-cell receptor sequences from blood and tissue samples.
