The majority of potential tumor antigens, however, are intracellular and expressed only as peptides in the groove of the MHC class I molecules. The goal is to induce a high level of both effector and memory cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) from a setting where tolerance may be operative. Pas...
In subject area: Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology Antigen presentation is the process in which pathogens such as a bacteria or viruses are ingested and processed by antigen presenting cells for stimulation of antigen specific T cells. ...
4g). Meanwhile, with a lower basal level of cytokine secretions, GD2F4.CAR-T cells could secret higher levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ after activation than WT CAR-T cells (Fig. 4h, i). Fig. 4: Reducing PCPs on the CAR surface mitigates T cell exhaustion induced by high CAR signaling. ...
In an earlier publication =-=(3)-=-, we demonstrated the existence of MHC restriction at the level of Hf-B cell cooperation. In view of previous and current studies on the definition of a minimal set of cooperating elements in B cell t...Shiozawa, C., Singh, B., Rubenstein, S., ...

The central dogma of molecular biology states that DNA is transcribed into RNA, which is in turn translated into protein. From this general rule, it is often assumed that a certain amount of DNA makes an equal, or at least proportional, amount of RNA, which in turn makes an equal or pro...
Synonyms Human kallikrein 3 ; KLK3 Definition Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) is a serine protease (33kDa) secreted mainly by prostatic epithelium. It is important for its role in the liquefaction of seminal coagulum. Characteristics After a tissue-specific antigen was identified in the human prost...
Definition of HBsAg response HBsAg response (sAg-R) was defined as a significant decrease in HBsAg level (> 0.5 log decrease from baseline levels) within six months from the initiation of cART. Participants living with HIV/HBV coinfection were stratified into sAg-R and HBsAg non-response (...
