This study demonstrates that the engagement of CD40 results in the activation of the recently described I O B kinase (IKK) in a human B cell line. The kinase appears to reside within the cell in a cytosolic signalsome complex consisting of IKK, I O B, and an MKP-1-like molecule. While the binding of
Induction of proliferation in primary resting T cells requires engagement of both the antigenspecific TCR and the co-stimulatory receptor CD28. Here we report that CD28 functions as an autonomous mitogenic receptor which is mobilized by TCR signaling through cytoskeletal rearrangement. Shortcutting
Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is known to exert deleterious effects on pancreatic beta-cells and is implicated in the development of type 1 (autoimmune) diabetes mellitus. In this study, we investigated signaling mechanisms mediating the effects of IFN-gamma in pancreatic beta-cells using a different
