Characteristics of T-cell receptor repertoire of stem cell-like memory CD4+ T cells [PDF]
Stem cell-like memory T cells (Tscm) combine phenotypes of naïve and memory. However, it remains unclear how T cell receptor (TCR) characteristics contribute to heterogeneity in Tscm and other memory T cells.

The transcriptional activator Gli2 modulates T-cell receptor signalling through attenuation of AP-1 and NFκ-B activity. [PDF]
Different tissues contain diverse and dynamic cellular niches, providing distinct signals to tissue-resident or migratory, infiltrating immune cells.

Analysis of the T-cell receptor repertoire in human atherosclerosis [PDF]
Analysis of T-cell receptor (TCR) beta-chain gene expression in atherosclerotic lesions of human aorta.TCR diversity was studied using non-radioactive polymerase chain reaction for quantitative assessment of TCRBV gene transcripts, together with size and sequence analysis of the beta-chain third complementarity-determining region (CDR3).

The LCMV gp33-specific memory T cell repertoire narrows with age
Background The memory response to LCMV in mice persists for months to years with only a small decrease in the number of epitope specific CD8 T cells. This long persistence is associated with resistance to lethal LCMV disease.

Immune Repertoire Profiling Reveals that Clonally Expanded B and T Cells Infiltrating Diseased Human Kidneys Can Also Be Tracked in Blood. [PDF]
Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing allow for the competitive analysis of the human B and T cell immune repertoire. In this study we compared Immunoglobulin and T cell receptor repertoires of lymphocytes found in kidney and blood samples of 10 ...

Antigen receptor variable region repertoires expressed by T cells infiltrating thyroid, retroorbital, and pretibial tissue in Graves' disease [PDF]
To date, it has remained unclear whether T cells infiltrating thyroid, retroorbital, and pretibial tissue of patients with Graves' ophthalmopathy and pretibial dermopathy represent a primary immune response that is directed against certain antigenic ...

Analysis of the paired TCR α- and β-chains of single human T cells. [PDF]
Analysis of the paired i.e. matching TCR α- and β-chain rearrangements of single human T cells is required for a precise investigation of clonal diversity, tissue distribution and specificity of protective and pathologic T-cell mediated immune responses.

Characterisation of T cell receptor repertoires in coeliac disease
Aims Characterise T-cell receptor gene (TR) repertoires of small intestinal T cells of patients with newly diagnosed (active) coeliac disease (ACD), refractory CD type I (RCD I) and patients with CD on a gluten-free diet (GFD).

Microbiome Shapes the T Cell Receptor Repertoire among CD4+CD8+ Thymocytes
The microbiome shapes the mature T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire and thereby influences pathogen control. To investigate microbiome influences on T cells at an earlier, immature stage, we compared single-cell TCR transcript sequences between CD4+CD8 ...

Sampling from T Cell Receptor Repertoires [PDF]
Modern single-cell sequencing techniques allow the unique TCR signature of each of a sample of hundreds of T cells to be read. The mathematical challenge is to extrapolate from the properties of a sample to those of the whole repertoire of an individual, made up of many millions of T cells.
