Comparison of T cell receptor-induced proximal signaling and downstream functions in immortalized and primary T cells.
BACKGROUND: Human T cells play an important role in pathogen clearance, but their aberrant activation is also linked to numerous diseases. T cells are activated by the concurrent induction of the T cell receptor (TCR) and one or more costimulatory receptors. The characterization of signaling pathway...
