he specificity of T-cell recognition events is essential for protective immune responses and in order to avoid autoimmunity. Binding of the T-cell receptor (TCR) to peptide bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is an early step for specific T-cell activation. This engagement lead
The genes encoding the T-cell receptor (TCR) variable beta (TCRBV) regions were studied in skin biopsy samples from 24 patients with cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL), i.e. mycosis fungoides (n = 7), SΓ©zary syndrome (n = 4), lymphomatoid papulosis (n = 3) and large cell CTCL with (n = 3) or without
