Next-generation sequencing offers an unprecedented opportunity to jointly analyze cellular and viral transcriptional activity without prerequisite knowledge of the nature of the transcripts. SupT1 cells were infected with a vesicular stomatitis virus G env ...
T lymphocytes are activated by the engagement of their antigen receptors (TCRs) with complexes of peptide and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules displayed on the cell surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) [1]. An unresolved question of a ...
The class II trans-activator CIITA is a transcriptional co-activator required for the expression of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) genes. Although the latter function is well established, the global target-gene specificity of CIITA had not been def ...
A variant 35 kb upstream of the HLA-C gene (-35C/T) was previously shown to associate with HLA-C mRNA expression level and steady-state plasma HIV RNA levels. We genotyped this variant in 1,698 patients of European ancestry with HIV. Individuals with known ...
The low frequency of precursor cells specific for any particular antigen (Ag) makes it difficult to characterize preimmune T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires and to understand repertoire selection during an immune response. We have undertaken a combined ado ...
A host genetic variant (-35C/T) correlates with increased human leukocyte antigen C (HLA-C) expression and improved control of HIV-1. HLA-C-mediated immunity may be particularly protective because HIV-1 is unable to remove HLA-C from the cell surface, wher ...
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) kill target cells by perforin-mediated pore formation, induction of apoptosis by the Fas ligand, or both. It has been demonstrated that depolarized neurons can be induced to express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class ...
Performance deteriorates when a target is flanked by contextual elements. For example, vernier thresholds increase when the vernier is flanked by lines. But when the lines are made part of a “good Gestalt”, like a rectangle, deterioration is reduced. Our e ...
The expression of several cell surface proteins including the transferrin receptor and 4F2 antigen is induced when quiescent cells are activated and proliferate. We have studied this induction in mouse spleen cells after stimulation with 4 beta-phorbol 12- ...
A role in thymic maturation for factors of the NF-kappaB family has long been suspected, but not yet proven. Transgenic mice with a lymphocyte-specific defect in NF-kappaB activation were produced by targeted expression of human IkappaB alpha. The thymic c ...
