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
IFN-gamma produced by CD4+ T helper 1 (Th1) cells promotes protection against intracellular pathogens. Antigen activation of Th1 cells is an important mode of IFN-gamma induction, but here we analyze a second, antigen-nonspecific pathway capable of inducing full IFN-gamma transcription. IL-12 or IL-
