Journal ArticleDOI

Differential effects of cytolytic T cell subsets on intracellular infection

TL;DR: The data indicate that two phenotypically distinct subsets of human cytolytic T lymphocytes use different mechanisms to kill infected cells and contribute in different ways to host defense against intracellular infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

CD1c-mediated T-cell recognition of isoprenoid glycolipids in Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection

TL;DR: It is shown that the T-cell antigen receptor and the CD1c protein mediate recognition of an evolutionarily conserved family of isoprenoid glycolipids whose members include essential components of protein glycosylation and cell-wall synthesis pathways.
Journal Article

CD1-Restricted Microbial Lipid Antigen-Specific Recognition Found in the CD8+ αβ T Cell Pool

TL;DR: Two human CD8+ TCR αβ+ T cell lines specific for Mycobacterium tuberculosis Ags presented in the context of CD1a or CD1c Ag-presenting molecules are reported, implying that previous assumptions about the role of CD8- T cells in microbial immunity may require revision.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Recognition of Lipid Antigens by T Cell Receptors

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that α/β TCRs, when transferred into TCR-deficient recipient cells, confer specificity for both the foreign lipid antigen and CD1 isoform.
