Journal ArticleDOI

Critical role for IL-15 in innate immunity.

TL;DR: This review summarizes recent progress of studies in the IL-15/IL-15R system, a pivotal cytokine for the development and survival of NK cells, NKT cells, TCRydelta+ intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes (ilEL), and for the functional maturation of dendritic cells and macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells Perform Hemophagocytosis to Fine-Tune Excessive Immune Responses

TL;DR: It is shown that when injected with high Toll-like receptor ligand doses or infected with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) clone 13, inflammatory monocyte-derived dendritic cells (Mo-DCs) engulfed apoptotic erythroid cells, suggesting that hemophagocytosis moderates immune responses to ensure the host's survival in vivo.
Journal Article

Distinct phenotypes of antigen-selected CD8 T cells emerge at different stages of an in vivo immune response.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the function of Ag-selected CD8 cells may be regulated over time and according to location by subtle changes in cell-surface phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lack of directed V alpha 14-J alpha 281 rearrangements in NK1+ T cells.

TL;DR: It is argued that rigorous ligand selection rather than directed rearrangement is responsible for the high frequency of Vα14‐Jα281 rearrangements in NK1.1+ T cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reduced development of CD4-8-B220+ T cells but normal autoantibody production in lpr/lpr mice lacking major histocompatibility complex class I molecules.

TL;DR: Analysis of anti‐DNA antibodies and rheumatoid factor in serum demonstrates that lprβ2m–/– mice produce comparable levels of autoantibodies to lprWT mice and support the hypothesis that the majority of DN T cells may be derived from cells of the CD8 lineage.
