Recent work on CD1 molecules has demonstrated that human CDlb and a lipoglycan from mycobacteria that CDlb presents colocalize to late endosomes. Presentation of this lipoglycan by CDlb requires antigen uptake via the mannose receptor. CD8 + CDl-restricted T cells can decrease the load of intracellu

While most of the focus in cancer immunology is on CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses, recent evidence indicates that CD4+ T cells are an equally critical component of the antitumor immune response. Successful immunity to cancer will therefore require activation of tumor-specific CD4+ T cells. Tu
## Abstract 4β1BBL^β/β^ mice have a defect in recall CD8^+^ T cell responses to viruses, whereas CD4^+^ T cell responses to virus are unimpaired in these mice. In contrast, both CD4^+^ and CD8^+^ T cells respond to 4β1BB ligand (4β1BBL) __in vitro__. To clarify the role of 4β1BB/4β1BBL in CD4^+^ ve
## Abstract The capacity of mice to produce antibodyβforming cells (AFC) to sheep erythrocytes and to low doses of two haptenated proteins increases logarithmically with age in the postnatal period. This increase is prevented by thymectomy. These findings, together with those on the ability of suck
Monoclonal antibody RR 111 directed against the putative LFA-1 ligand molecule intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) was found to inhibit the T cell proliferative response to the antigen PPD. Interestingly, the percentage of unstimulated monocytes which expressed ICAM-1 on their surface appeare
