Transplant Outcome in Mice Effects of T Cell Frequency and Graft
... The features that determine whether graft-reactive T lymphocytes develop into effector cells capable of mediating organ destruction are not well understood. To investigate potential factors involved in this process, we first confirmed that female recipient mice acutely rejected minor Ag-disparate ma ...

Because TAAs are often recognized as self- antigens by the immune system, T cells that have strong reactivity against these self-antigens are often tolerized through various mechanisms before they ...

We discovered that some epidermal leukocytes in first trimester human skin did not express any commonly used monocyte or dendritic cell marker and could only be identified as haematopoietic cells on the basis of their staining for CD45. In addition, they did not express CD34 but partially expressed ...
