Peripheral Blood TCR Clonotype Diversity as a Biomarker for Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesBioengineering
There exists an urgent need to improve colorectal cancer (CRC) diagnosis due to limitations in current diagnostic approaches. Systematic characterization of the human T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire, coupled with advanced computational methods, provides

Plasmodium yoelii infection of BALB/c mice results in expansion rather than induction of CD4+ Foxp3+ regulatory T cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Recently, we demonstrated elevated numbers of CD4(+) Foxp3(+) regulatory T (Treg) cells in Plasmodium yoelii‐infected mice contributing to the regulation of anti‐malarial immune response. However, it remains unclear whether this increase in Treg cells is

A Scalable Framework for Comprehensive Typing of Polymorphic Immune Genes from Long‐Read Data

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
SpecImmune introduces a unified computational framework optimized for long‐read sequencing to resolve over 400 highly polymorphic immune genes. This scalable approach achieves high‐resolution typing, enabling the discovery of cross‐family co‐evolutionary networks and population‐specific diversity.

Systemic T Cell Receptor Profiling Reveals Adaptive Immune Activation and Potential Immune Signatures of Diagnosis and Brain Atrophy in Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology
Objective Epilepsy is increasingly associated with immune dysregulation and inflammation. The T cell receptor (TCR), a key mediator of adaptive immunity, shows repertoire alterations in various immune‐mediated diseases.

Evolution of the Antigen-Specific CD8+ TCR Repertoire across the Life Span: Evidence for Clonal Homogenization of the Old TCR Repertoire [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2011
Abstract Defects in T cell responses against pathogens and reduced diversity of TCRs have been described at both extremes of the life span. Yet, we still lack information on how Ag-specific T cell populations are maintained and/or altered from birth to old age.

Single‐Cell Dissection of Tumor‐Infiltrating Lymphocytes Reveals Cellular Architecture Predictive of Therapeutic Efficacy in Acral Melanoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Autologous tumor‐infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy shows promising efficacy in acral melanoma, yet determinants of durable response remain unclear. By integrating single‐cell transcriptomics and TCR sequencing, this study reveals that TIL products enriched for T follicular helper and intermediate exhausted T cells establish persistent clonal ...

Revealing individual signatures of human T cell CDR3 sequence repertoires with Kidera Factors.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The recent development of High Throughput Sequencing technologies has enabled an individual's TCR repertoire to be efficiently analysed at the nucleotide level. However, with unique clonotypes ranging in the tens of millions per individual, this approach

Reporters of TCR signaling identify arthritogenic T cells in murine and human autoimmune arthritis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
How pathogenic cluster of differentiation 4 (CD4) T cells in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) develop remains poorly understood. We used Nur77-a marker of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signaling-to identify antigen-activated CD4 T cells in the SKG mouse model ...

EXPRESSION OF A FUNCTIONAL CHIMERIC lg-MHC CLASS II PROTEIN [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
composed of the a- and ß-chains of the MHC class I1 I-E molecule fused to antibody V regions derived from anti-human CD4 mAb MT310. Expression vectors were constructed containing the functional, rearranged gene segments coding for the V region domains of

The TCR δ Repertoire in Normal Human Skin is Restricted and Distinct from the TCR δ Repertoire in the Peripheral Blood [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2001
The skin and the intestinal mucosa form surfaces to external environments and share similarities in anatomic structure and immunologic defense. In healthy humans, intestinal gamma/delta T cells express a highly restricted gamma/delta T cell receptor repertoire whereas gamma/delta T cells of the skin were thought to express a polyclonal repertoire ...
