Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of the co-stimulator molecule B7-1 in pancreatic beta-cells accelerates diabetes in the NOD mouse.

TL;DR: Transgenic mice have been generated that express B7-1 on the β-cells of the pancreatic islets of Langerhans and this illustrates that B 7-1 is a very potent co-stimulatory molecule in vivo and that its presence on the surface of tissue cells can potentiate the autoimmune process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recognition of core and flanking amino acids of MHC class II-bound peptides by the T cell receptor.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the flanking residues of the conalbumin peptide bound to I‐Ak have no effect on recognition by the D10 TCR, and it is found that the peptide flanks residues contribute substantially to MHC binding.
Journal ArticleDOI

Further observations on the Swiss type of agammaglobulinemia (alymphocytosis). The effect of syngeneic bone-marrow cells.

TL;DR: A severe, lethal form of agammaglobulinemia associated with alymphocytosis and aplasia of the thymus gland has been described in western Europe and the United States.
Journal ArticleDOI

The T cell activation molecule H4 and the CD28-like molecule ICOS are identical.

TL;DR: Evaluating whether H4 and ICOS are the same molecule using the C398.4A (binding human and mouse H4) and F44 ( binding human ICOS) monoclonal antibody (mAb) in parallel experiments on human T cells proves it.
Journal ArticleDOI

Self-defense: The fruit fly style

TL;DR: The immune system of higher vertebrates consists of innate and adaptive components that differ mainly by the mechanisms of pathogen recognition: the innate immune system uses germ-line encoded receptors to recognize conserved molecular constituents of infectious microorganisms, whereas adaptive immunity is mediated by highly specific antigen receptors.
