CD45 (lymphocyte common antigen) is a receptor‐linked protein tyrosine phosphatase that
is expressed on all leucocytes, and which plays a crucial role in the function of these cells …

Adoptive transfer of TCR‐transgenic T cells uniformly expressing an identifiable TCR of
known peptide/MHC specificity can be used to monitor the in vivo behavior of antigen …

Cannabinoids have immunomodulatory as well as psychoactive effects. Because the central
cannabinoid receptor (cannabinoid CB1 receptor) is highly expressed in many neuronal …

The adoptive transfer of TCR-transgenic T cells into syngeneic recipients allows
characterization of individual T cells during in vivo immune responses. However, the …

Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized antigen-presenting cells that are uniquely capable of
either inducing immune responses or maintaining a state of self-tolerance, depending on …

The adoptive transfer of naive CD4+ T cell receptor (TCR) transgenic T cells was used to
investigate the mechanisms by which the adjuvant lipopolysaccharide (LPS) enhance T cell …

The combination of granulocyte‐macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) and
interleukin‐4 (IL‐4) induces the growth of antigen‐presenting cells (APC) from adherent …

The B7-1 and B7-2 expressed on the'professional'antigen-presenting cells (APC) of the
lymphoid system are counterreceptors for the T cell antigens CD28/CTLA-4. The B7/CD28 …

Modulation of proliferative T‐cell responses by n‐butyrate has been suggested to result from
direct interference with cell cycle progression. Considering the important role of antigen …

Recent studies in gene transfer suggest that the innate immune system plays a significant
role in impeding gene therapy. In this review, we examine factors that might influence the …
