Characterization of human cytomegalovirus peptide-specific CD8⁺ T-cell repertoire diversity following in vitro restimulation by antigen-pulsed dendritic cells

, 2002
Under conditions of impaired T-cell immunity, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can reactivate from lifelong latency, resulting in potentially fatal disease.

Rapid turnover of effector-memory CD4(+) T cells in healthy humans [PDF]

, 2004
Memory T cells can be divided into central-memory (T(CM)) and effector-memory (T(EM)) cells, which differ in their functional properties. Although both subpopulations can persist long term, it is not known whether they are maintained by similar ...

Class II MHC self-antigen presentation in human B and T lymphocytes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Human CD4(+) T cells process and present functional class II MHC-peptide complexes, but the endogenous peptide repertoire of these non-classical antigen presenting cells remains unknown. We eluted and sequenced HLA-DR-bound self-peptides presented by CD4(

Is the exquisite specificity of lymphocytes generated by thymic selection or due to evolution?

Frontiers in Immunology
We have previously argued that the antigen receptors of T and B lymphocytes evolved to be sufficiently specific to avoid massive deletion of clonotypes by negative selection.

Comprehensive T cell repertoire characterization of non-small cell lung cancer

Nature Communications, 2020
Relevant features of T cell repertoire in human cancer remain to be delineated. Here the authors show, by TCR sequencing in a large cohort of lung cancer patients, that while a majority of T cell clones are shared between tumor and adjacent lung tissue ...

Preexisting memory CD4 T cells in naïve individuals confer robust immunity upon hepatitis B vaccination

eLife, 2022
Antigen recognition through the T cell receptor (TCR) αβ heterodimer is one of the primary determinants of the adaptive immune response. Vaccines activate naïve T cells with high specificity to expand and differentiate into memory T cells.

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

Tracking Virus-Specific CD4+ T Cells during and after Acute Hepatitis C Virus Infection [PDF]

, 2007
Background. CD4+ T cell help is critical in maintaining antiviral immune responses and such help has been shown to be sustained in acute resolving hepatitis C.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

Deep sequencing of antiviral T-cell responses to HCMV and EBV in humans reveals a stable repertoire that is maintained for many years. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
CD8(+) T-cell responses against latent viruses can cover considerable portions of the CD8(+) T-cell compartment for many decades, yet their initiation and maintenance remains poorly characterized in humans. A key question is whether the clonal repertoire
