CD28 and CTLA-4 are opposing regulators of T cell activation, triggered by the two ligands CD80 and CD86. How these ligands promote either T cell activation via CD28 or inhibition via CTLA-4 is not understood. Using CD80 and CD86 molecules expressed on transfected cells, we have identified a major d
We have further characterized the in vitro phenotype and function of anergic and suppressive CD4(+)25(+) T cells. Following TCR ligation, DO.11.10 CD4(+)25(+) T cells suppress the activation of OT-1 CD8(+)25(-) T cells in an antigen nonspecific manner. Although suppression was seen when using a mixt
