TCR Signaling in T Cell Memory
T cell memory plays a critical role in our protection against pathogens and tumors. The antigen and its interaction with the T cell receptor (TCR) is one of the initiating elements that shape T cell memory together with inflammation and costimulation. Over the last decade, several transcription factors and signaling pathways that support memory programing have been identified. However, how TCR ...
متن کاملRecent Advances in T Cell Signaling in Aging
The immune system of mammalian organisms undergoes alterations that may account for an increased susceptibility to certain infections, autoimmune diseases, or malignancies. Well characterized are age related defect in T cell functions and cell mediated immunity. Although it is well established that the functional properties of T cells decrease with age, its biochemical and molecular nature is...
متن کاملPresenilins regulate αβ T cell development by modulating TCR signaling
TCRalphabeta signaling is crucial for the maturation of CD4 and CD8 T cells, but the role of the Notch signaling pathway in this process is poorly understood. Genes encoding Presenilin (PS) 1/2 were deleted to prevent activation of the multiple Notch receptors expressed by developing thymocytes. PS1/2 knockout thymocyte precursors inefficiently generate CD4 T cells, a phenotype that is most pro...
متن کاملCish attenuates proximal TCR-signaling and CD8+ T cell immunity
CD8 T cells are potent killers of infected cells and tumors, specifically recognizing their targets through the T cell receptor (TCR). While much has been revealed about the activation of TCR signaling, negative regulation of this pathway remains incompletely elucidated. We report that Cish plays an inhibitory role in immunity to infection and adoptive transfer of Cish-deficient CD8 T cells eli...
متن کاملT cell receptor (TCR) clustering in the immunological synapse integrates TCR and costimulatory signaling in selected T cells.
During T cell activation, T cell receptors (TCR) cluster at the center of the T cell/antigen-presenting cell interface forming a key component of the immunological synapse. The function of this TCR clustering is still unresolved. A comprehensive search for such a function yielded a very limited and specific result. A micrometer-scale receptor clustering integrated the TCR and CD28 signals requi...
