Monitoring the T-cell receptor repertoire at single-clone resolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2006
The adaptive immune system recognizes billions of unique antigens using highly variable T-cell receptors. The alphabeta T-cell receptor repertoire includes an estimated 10(6) different rearranged beta chains per individual.

MaGiK Method of T-Cell Receptor Repertoire Analysis [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Vaccine Immunology, 2002
ABSTRACT T-cell receptor diversity enables the cellular immune response to recognize a broad range of viral and other pathogenic agents. An increasingly common method of characterizing T-cell receptor diversity and usage in response to antigenic challenges involves the identification of clonal expansions by PCR amplification of the CDR3 ...

Premature Infants Have Normal Maturation of the T Cell Receptor Repertoire at Term

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Premature infants are known to have immature immune systems compared to term infants; however, the impacts of ex utero immune development are not well characterized.

Interpreting the T-cell receptor repertoire [PDF]

open access: yesNature Biotechnology, 2017
T cell receptor (TCR) sequences are very diverse, with many more possible sequence combinations than T cells in any one individual. Here we define the minimal requirements for TCR antigen specificity, through an analysis of TCR sequences using a panel of peptide and major histocompatibility complex (pMHC)-tetramer-sorted cells and structural data.

The Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein is required for positive selection during T-cell lineage differentiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
The Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked primary immune deficiency caused by a mutation in the WAS gene. This leads to altered or absent WAS protein (WASp) expression and function resulting in thrombocytopenia, eczema, recurrent infections, and ...

Cytomegalovirus-Mediated T Cell Receptor Repertoire Perturbation Is Present in Early Life

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a highly prevalent herpesvirus, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, where it is endemic from infancy. The T cell response against CMV is important in keeping the virus in check, with CD8 T cells playing a major role in the ...

Comparative Study of Repertoire Classification Methods Reveals Data Efficiency of k-mer Feature Extraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The repertoire of T cell receptors encodes various types of immunological information. Machine learning is indispensable for decoding such information from repertoire datasets measured by next-generation sequencing (NGS).

The T‐cell receptor repertoire of regulatory T cells [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2008
SummaryThe CD4+ CD25+ regulatory population of T cells (Treg cells), which expresses the forkhead family transcription factor (Foxp3), is the key component of the peripheral tolerance mechanism that protects us from a variety of autoimmune diseases.

Single-cell RNA-seq revealing the immune features of donor liver during liver transplantation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Immune cells, including T and B cells, are key factors in the success of liver transplantation. And the repertoire of T cells and B cells plays an essential function in mechanism of the immune response associated with organ transplantation.

The T Cell Receptor Repertoire Diversity Following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

open access: yesIranian Journal of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology, 2022
Immune reconstitution after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with a conditioning regimen has appeared to be a promising treatment for autoimmune diseases and hematologic malignancies.
