Cytotoxic T lymphocytes
Cancer stem cells (CSCs)/cancer-initiating cells (CICs) are characterized as a small population of cancer cells that have high tumor-initiating ability. CSCs/CICs are resistant to several cancer therapies, and eradication of CSCs/CICs is essential to cure cancer. How can we eradicate CSCs/CICs? Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) might be a promising answer.
متن کاملFucosylation enhances activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes against breast cancer
Introduction Fucosylation is a process by which fucose sugar groups are added to cell surface receptors. This process is mediated by fucosyl transferases that attach terminal fucose groups to acceptor molecules on the cell surface. Fucosylation of cord blood stem cells and human regulatory T cells (Treg) were shown to enhance cord blood engraftment and Treg homing to inflamed tissues. Since tum...
متن کامل360 Human Milk T Lymphocytes
It has been recognized for more than half a century that, in addition to occasional mammary gland alveolar or ductal epithelial cell fragments, colostrum and milk consistently contain significant concentrations of viable leukocytes. These include lipid-laden macrophages that can exhibit ameboid and phagocytic activity, polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and lymphocytes of various sizes (1, 2). The ...
متن کاملCytotoxic T Lymphocytes and Vaccine Development
Along with the development of new technology, the molecular mechanisms of the generation of functional CTLs have been elucidated over the last several years which together will undoubtedly enhance our progression towards the development of successful vaccines for the many chronic viral infections and cancer. It has been shown that the activation of naı̈ve CTLs requires all three signals to be fu...
متن کاملCytotoxic T Lymphocytes and Vaccine Development 2011
Research on CTLs has been booming in recent years—there are more than 250 papers related to CD8 T-cells published everymonth.With such rapid advancement in this particular aspect of immunology alone, it is important to summarize and report information on this hot topic in a timely and organized fashion. Although the submission window for this issue was open for a significantly shorter period co...
