✦ Synopsis

Sophisticated molecular and microscopic methods used to study biofilm formation are rapidly broadening our understanding of surface-attached microbial communities in a wide variety of organisms. Regulatory mechanisms involved in the attachment and subsequent development of mature biofilms are being elucidated. Common themes are beginning to emerge, providing promise for the development of sophisticated control strategies.

Unresponsiveness of mature T cells to the same self-peptide/self-MHC molecule complexes with which thymocytes have reacted during positive selection results from an increase of activation thresholds during maturation. The molecular events accounting for this increase are still unknown. In mature cel
