Regional and global changes in TCR [alpha][beta] T cell repertoires in the gut are dependent upon the complexity of the enteric microflora

, 2010
The repertoire of gut associated T cells is shaped by exposure to microbes, including the natural enteric microflora. Previous studies compared the repertoire of gut associated T cell populations in germ free (GF) and conventional mammals often focussing

T-Cell activation: a queuing theory analysis at low agonist density [PDF]

, 2006
We analyze a simple linear triggering model of the T-cell receptor (TCR) within the framework of queuing theory, in which TCRs enter the queue upon full activation and exit by downregulation.

Rapid Assessment of T-Cell Receptor Specificity of the Immune Repertoire [PDF]

Nature Computational Science, 2020
Abstract Accurate assessment of TCR-antigen specificity at the whole immune repertoire level lies at the heart of improved cancer immunotherapy, but predictive models capable of high-throughput assessment of TCR-peptide pairs are lacking.

Applicability of T cell receptor repertoire sequencing analysis to unbalanced clinical samples – comparing the T cell receptor repertoire of GATA2 deficient patients and healthy controls

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2023
T cell receptor repertoire sequencing (TCRseq) has become one of the major omic tools to study the immune system in health and disease. Multiple commercial solutions are currently available, greatly facilitating the implementation of this complex method

Plasticity of the Immune System in Children Following Treatment Interruption in HIV-1 Infection

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
It is intriguing that, unlike adults with HIV-1, children with HIV-1 reach a greater CD4+ T cell recovery following planned treatment cessation. The reasons for the better outcomes in children remain unknown but may be related to increased thymic output ...

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

T‐Cell Receptor Repertoire in Human Germinal Centres [PDF]

Scandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2001
A search for an antigen‐driven expansion of T lymphocytes in the inflamed joints in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients have been going on for decades. We here analyzed the human germinal centre T‐cell receptor (TCR) Vβ gene usage with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) combined with sequence analysis, to address the question of clonality in tonsils and ...

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Studies of suppression using monoclonal regulatory T cells and the importance of co-receptor Lck coupling ratios for negative selection [PDF]

, 2015
Normal physiology is not given without immunological tolerance. Depending on the origin of induction, tolerance can be divided into central and peripheral tolerance.

Lymphocyte homeostasis is maintained in perinatally HIV-infected patients after three decades of life

Immunity & Ageing, 2019
Background While immunosenescence, defined as reduced production of new lymphocytes, restriction of T-cell receptor repertoire and telomeres shortening, has been extensively evaluated in HIV-infected children and adults, no data about these parameters ...
