We have analyzed the role of cognate interaction with helper T cells (Th) in support of resting B cell differentiation to plaque formation. Co-culture of histoincompatible resting B cells and resting Th cells resulted in the induction of plaque-forming cells when dimeric but not monomeric fragments
Induction of proliferation in primary resting T cells requires engagement of both the antigenspecific TCR and the co-stimulatory receptor CD28. Here we report that CD28 functions as an autonomous mitogenic receptor which is mobilized by TCR signaling through cytoskeletal rearrangement. Shortcutting
