The antigenic specificity of the majority of T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood is determined by the combination of a and p variable region chains present in the T cell receptor complex. Currently, the Vp chains are grouped into 25 families. Historically, determination of Vp usage has relied on d
## Abstract CD4^+^ effector T cells generated in mesenteric lymph nodes (mLN) leave into the blood. Although they enter many tissues, mLN effector T cells are later found preferentially in the gut,the drainage area of mLN. We show in the rat that this is not an intrinsic property of mLN T cells. In
The role of TGF-g 1 in the regulation of T cell responses has been perplexing, possibly because it is dependent on the type of T cell being regulated and its cytokine microenvironment. In the present study, we demonstrate that TGF-g 1 has a profound inhibitory effect on naive CD4 + T cell undergoing
