Co-engagement of CD3 with ICAM-1 enhances the activation of murine CD4+ and CD8+ T-cells in an accessory cell-free culture system and induces production of IL-3 and IFN-γ, which is four times greater in CD8+ T-cells compared to CD4+ T-cells [48]. Anti-ICAM-1 mAb inhibits in vitro production of TNF-α ...
