Complement receptor CD46 co-stimulates optimal human CD8+ T cell effector function via fatty acid metabolism

Complement, while serving to remove pathogens in the circulation, is also important for synergizing with inflammasomes to modulate CD4 T cell activation. Here the authors show that CD46, a complement receptor expressed only in humans, is essential for inducing optimal activation and effector functio...
