Effects of Repeated Lipopolysaccharide Stimulation on the Development of Antigen-presenting Cells and T Cells Pool in Hen Vagina

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2013
The aim of this study was to determine how the mucosal immunity mediated by T cells is developed in the vagina. Antigen-presenting cells and T cells play important roles in the early process of host defense.

Reconstitution of Lymphopaenic Mice with Regulatory and Conventional T cell Subsets

Bio-Protocol, 2016
Transfer of mature T cells into immunodeficient mice results in sub-optimal reconstitution of the peripheral T cell pool. Under lymphopenic conditions, dendritic cells are released from tonic control by regulatory T cells (Tregs), and consequently drive ...

Not All Immune Checkpoints Are Created Equal

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Antibodies that block T cell inhibition via the immune checkpoints CTLA-4 and PD-1 have revolutionized cancer therapy during the last 15 years. T cells express additional inhibitory surface receptors that are considered to have potential as targets in ...
