CD4+ T Cell Depletion during all Stages of HIV Disease Occurs Predominantly in the Gastrointestinal Tract

TL;DR: The nature and extent of CD4+ T cell depletion in lymphoid tissue is defined and mechanisms of profound depletion of specific T cell subsets related to elimination of CCR5+ CD4- T cell targets and disruption of T cell homeostasis that accompanies chronic immune activation are pointed to.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensitive and viable identification of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells by a flow cytometric assay for degranulation

TL;DR: A novel technique to enumerate antigen-specific CD8+ T cells using a marker expressed on the cell surface following activation induced degranulation, a necessary precursor of cytolysis, and CD107-expressing CD8+, expressing cognate T cell receptors (TCR), is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impaired T H 17 cell differentiation in subjects with autosomal dominant hyper-IgE syndrome

TL;DR: Ex vivo T cells from subjects with HIES failed to produce IL-17, but not IL-2, tumour-necrosis factor or interferon-γ, on mitogenic stimulation with staphylococcal enterotoxin B or on antigenic stimulation with Candida albicans or streptokinase, which is consistent with a crucial role for STAT3 signalling in the generation of TH17 cells.
