β¦ Synopsis
The specificity of T-cell recognition is dictated by the interaction of the T-cell receptor with MHC-peptide complexes. The biological consequences of such recognition is determined, however, by costimulatory pathway(s). Recent studies have led to the identification of receptor-counter-receptor pairs that may regulate T-cell costimulation.

## Abstract Binding of the TNF family member, B cell activating factor (BAFF), to its receptor (BAFFβR, TNFRSF13C) is required for generation and maintenance of mature B cells, but there are no data as to any role for the BAFF/BAFFβR pathway in T cell functions. We report that the binding of BAFF t
