## Abstract All human T lymphoblast cell lines have been derived from subjects with leukemia secondary to thymic lymphoblastic lymphoma, a T cell malignacy, suggesting that such lines represent established cultures of neoplastic T cells. Based on this observation, we prepared rabbit antisera to T c
Previously, we studied the surface expression of LFA-I (CDI Ia/CD18) and ICAM-I (CD54) in a panel of 16 human T-cell lines and found that those carrying HTLV-I pro-viruses expressed high levels of ICAM-I. Enhanced expression of ICAM-I was also seen in fresh leukemic cells from ATL patients. In the p
Estrogen (E2)-induced immunomodulation involves dual effects on antigen-presenting cells (APC) and CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Treg) but not a direct effect on effector T cells. In this report, we further investigated the effects of E2 on APC and Treg function. We found that E2 treatment in vi
