Cytotoxic T lymphocyte effector function is independent of nucleus–centrosome dissociation
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) kill tumorigenic and virally infected cells by targeted secretion of lytic granule contents. The precise point at which secretion occurs is directed by the centrosome docking at the immunological synapse (IS). The centrosome is highly dynamic in CTLs, lagging behind the nucleus in the uropod of migrating CTLs, but translocating across the entire length of the cell...
متن کاملIn vivo effector function of influenza virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte clones is highly specific
Cloned lines of murine cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) directed to type A influenza virus confer complete protection upon adoptive transfer to syngeneic mice lethally infected by influenza virus. The exquisite specificity exhibited by a subtype-specific cloned CTL in culture is reflected in its capacity to eliminate pulmonary virus and mediate recovery only in those mice infected by the virus sub...
متن کاملHuman Regulatory T Cell Suppressive Function Is Independent of Apoptosis Induction in Activated Effector T Cells
BACKGROUND CD4(+)CD25(+)FOXP3(+) Regulatory T cells (Treg) play a central role in the immune balance to prevent autoimmune disease. One outstanding question is how Tregs suppress effector immune responses in human. Experiments in mice demonstrated that Treg restrict effector T cell (Teff) responses by deprivation of the growth factor IL-2 through Treg consumption, resulting in apoptosis of Teff...
متن کاملMicroglia induce CD4 T lymphocyte final effector function and death
Microglia, a type of tissue macrophage, are the only cells in the central nervous system (CNS) parenchyma to express some major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II constitutively or to upregulate expression readily. They are thought to play a role in CD4 T cell activation in autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, as well as in neurodegenerative conditions, Alzheimer's disease in ...
متن کاملPhorbol ester induces a differential effect on the effector function of human allospecific cytotoxic T lymphocyte and natural killer clones.
Six-day allosensitized human peripheral blood lymphocytes treated for 12-18 hr with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) were found to lose the capacity to kill the specific target in a standard cell-mediated lympholysis (CML) assay, but they were still effective in their ability to kill the tumor cell line K562. We investigated which antigens on the cell membrane involved in alloimmune recogn...
