實驗概要T-cell activation, which plays a central role in the regulation of immune responses, involves multiple intracellular signaling events originating from the cell surface TCR/CD3 complex. Cross-linking of the TCR/CD3 complex by immobilized anti-CD3 antibody induces T-cell activation, leading to the production of cytokines such as interleukin 2 (IL-2). IL-2 binds to its high-affini......閱讀全文
TNF acts on several different signaling pathways through two cell surface receptors, TNFR1 and TNFR2 (See TNFR1 and TNFR2 Signaling Pathways) to regul
The activation of T cells requires a co-stimulatory signal with T cell receptor activation, provided in many cases by activation of CD28 in resting T
