Ability of γδ T cells to modulate the Foxp3 T cell response is dependent on adenosine. [PDF]
, 2018 Whether γδ T cells inhibit or enhance the Foxp3 T cell response depends upon their activation status. The critical enhancing effector in the supernatant is adenosine.

Destabilizing the autoinhibitory conformation of Zap70 induces up-regulation of inhibitory receptors and T cell unresponsiveness. [PDF]
, 2017 Zap70 plays a critical role in normal T cell development and T cell function. However, little is known about how perturbation of allosteric autoinhibitory mechanisms in Zap70 impacts T cell biology.

Intrathymic expression of Flt3 ligand enhances thymic recovery after irradiation [PDF]
, 2008 Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) requires conditioning treatments such as irradiation, which leads to a severely delayed recovery of T cell immunity and constitutes a major complication of this therapy.

IRAP-dependent endosomal T cell receptor signalling is essential for T cell responses
Nature Communications, 2020 T cell receptors (TCR) are internalized when activated by their ligands. Here the authors show that the internalized TCRs are localized to endosomes expressing IRAP and Syntaxin 6 to maintain intracellular signalling capacity, whose importance is shown ...

Early Investigations and Recent Advances in Intraperitoneal Immunotherapy for Peritoneal Metastasis. [PDF]
, 2018 Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is an advanced stage malignancy largely refractory to modern therapy. Intraperitoneal (IP) immunotherapy offers a novel approach for the control of regional disease of the peritoneal cavity by breaking immune tolerance.

Transgenic expression of the Ly49A natural killer cell receptor confers class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-specific inhibition and prevents bone marrow allograft rejection. [PDF]
, 1996 Natural killer (NK) cells and some T cells are endowed with receptors specific for class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules that can inhibit cellular effector functions.

T cell receptor signaling for γδT cell development
Inflammation and Regeneration, 2019 T cells are central to the vertebrate immune system. Two distinct types of T cells, αβT and γδT cells, express different types of T cell antigen receptors (TCRs), αβTCR and γδTCR, respectively, that are composed of different sets of somatically ...

Germline T cell receptor exchange results in physiological T cell development and function
Nature Communications, 2023 The currently available transgenic T cell receptor (TCR) models represent high affinity antigen-TCR interactions. Authors here present an alternative approach to target an exogenous TCR into the physiological Trac locus in the germline of mice, which ...

Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
, 2006 The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.
