Correlations in the T Cell Response to Altered Peptide Ligands

open access: yes, 2004
The vertebrate immune system is a wonder of modern evolution. Occasionally, however, correlations within the immune system lead to inappropriate recruitment of preexisting T cells against novel viral diseases.

RAGs and Regulation of Autoantibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Autoreactive antibodies are etiologic agents in a number of autoimmune diseases. Like all other antibodies these antibodies are produced in developing B cells by V(D)J recombination in the bone marrow.

The TCR Repertoire Reconstitution in Multiple Sclerosis: Comparing One-Shot and Continuous Immunosuppressive Therapies

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Natalizumab (NTZ) and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) are two successful treatments for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS), an autoimmune T-cell-driven disorder affecting the central nervous system that is ...

Comparison of T-cell receptor repertoire restriction in blood and tumor tissue of colorectal cancer patients

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2010
Several immunotherapeutic approaches rely on antigen-specific T-cells. Restrictions in the T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire were reported as indicator of anti-tumor cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) response in various tumor entities.

γδ T cells affect IL-4 production and B-cell tolerance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
γδ T cells can influence specific antibody responses. Here, we report that mice deficient in individual γδ T-cell subsets have altered levels of serum antibodies, including all major subclasses, sometimes regardless of the presence of αβ T cells.

Combined TCR Repertoire Profiles and Blood Cell Phenotypes Predict Melanoma Patient Response to Personalized Neoantigen Therapy plus Anti-PD-1

open access: yesCell Reports Medicine, 2020
Summary T cells use highly diverse receptors (TCRs) to identify tumor cells presenting neoantigens arising from genetic mutations and establish anti-tumor activity.

Circulating gluten‐specific, but not CMV‐specific, CD39+ regulatory T cells have an oligoclonal TCR repertoire

open access: yesClinical & Translational Immunology, 2020
Objectives Understanding the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoire of regulatory CD4+ T‐cell (Treg) populations is important for strategies aiming to re‐establish tolerance in autoimmune diseases. We studied circulating deamidated gluten‐epitope‐specific CD39+

The naive T-cell receptor repertoire has an extremely broad distribution of clone sizes

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The clone size distribution of the human naive T-cell receptor (TCR) repertoire is an important determinant of adaptive immunity. We estimated the abundance of TCR sequences in samples of naive T cells from blood using an accurate quantitative sequencing

Autoreactive effector/memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells infiltrating grafted and endogenous islets in diabetic NOD mice exhibit similar T cell receptor usage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Islet transplantation provides a "cure" for type 1 diabetes but is limited in part by recurrent autoimmunity mediated by β cell-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells.

Assessing T cell clonal size distribution: a non-parametric approach

open access: yes, 2014
Clonal structure of the human peripheral T-cell repertoire is shaped by a number of homeostatic mechanisms, including antigen presentation, cytokine and cell regulation.
