Co-receptors
... The activation of specialised immune cells from the adaptive immune response (i.e. B cells and T cells) is controlled by their specific antigen receptor but also by co-receptors. In order to be fully activated and ready to respond to intruders or damaged cells, naïve T cells (that haven’t contacted ...

Key Concepts in B cell Activation-I
... Key Concepts in T cell Activation-I 1. Adaptive immune responses are initiated and mediated by T-cell activation. 2. Naïve T lymphocytes migrate from Thymus to 2o Lymphoid organs, whereby encounter Ag presented by APCs (eg. DCs) and then become activated. 3. T-cell activation requires Two Signals: ...

Immunomodulation by proteolytic enzymes
... Without this amplificatory event, full-blown T-cellmediated pathology may not develop [11]. Therefore cleavage of accessory molecules at sites of inflammation by trypsin could locally reset the T-cell activation threshold, acting as a physiological regulator of the inflammatory response. Analogously ...
