Parasite Immunity: How T cells see Toxo
TL;DR: The ability of exogenous or vacuolar antigens to access the cytosolic MHC class I processing pathway determines whether they serve as sources for peptide–MHC ligands that elicit CD8+ Tcell responses, and surprisingly, the entire T-cell population that was responding to the parasite was found to be specific for the HF10 peptide, which is consistent with HF10 being an immunodominant epitope.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tuning a T cell's excitation threshold
TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors found that miR-181a expression levels varied during T-cell maturation, with T cells at the early stages of differentiation, expressing the highest levels and negative selection T cells expressing the lowest levels.
