    Structural requirements for glycolipid antigen recognition by CD1b-restricted T cells (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-10-10
    Description: The human CD1b protein presents lipid antigens to T cells, but the molecular mechanism is unknown. Identification of mycobacterial glucose monomycolate (GMM) as a CD1b-presented glycolipid allowed determination of the structural requirements for its recognition by T cells. Presentation of GMM to CD1b-restricted T cells was not affected by substantial variations in its lipid tails, but was extremely sensitive to chemical alterations in its carbohydrate or other polar substituents. These findings support the view that the recently demonstrated hydrophobic CD1 groove binds the acyl chains of lipid antigens relatively nonspecifically, thereby positioning the hydrophilic components for highly specific interactions with T cell antigen receptors.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Moody, D B -- Reinhold, B B -- Guy, M R -- Beckman, E M -- Frederique, D E -- Furlong, S T -- Ye, S -- Reinhold, V N -- Sieling, P A -- Modlin, R L -- Besra, G S -- Porcelli, S A -- AR01988/AR/NIAMS NIH HHS/ -- GM54045/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- RR10888/RR/NCRR NIH HHS/ -- etc. -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Oct 10;278(5336):283-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Lymphocyte Biology Section, Division of Rheumatology, Immunology, and Allergy, Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02115, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9323206" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Differential effects of cytolytic T cell subsets on intracellular infection (1997)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1997-06-13
    Description: In analyzing mechanisms of protection against intracellular infections, a series of human CD1-restricted T cell lines of two distinct phenotypes were derived. Both CD4(-)CD8(-) (double-negative) T cells and CD8(+) T cells efficiently lysed macrophages infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The cytotoxicity of CD4(-)CD8(-) T cells was mediated by Fas-FasL interaction and had no effect on the viability of the mycobacteria. The CD8(+) T cells lysed infected macrophages by a Fas-independent, granule-dependent mechanism that resulted in killing of bacteria. These data indicate that two phenotypically distinct subsets of human cytolytic T lymphocytes use different mechanisms to kill infected cells and contribute in different ways to host defense against intracellular infection.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Stenger, S -- Mazzaccaro, R J -- Uyemura, K -- Cho, S -- Barnes, P F -- Rosat, J P -- Sette, A -- Brenner, M B -- Porcelli, S A -- Bloom, B R -- Modlin, R L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1997 Jun 13;276(5319):1684-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Microbiology and Immunology, University of California Los Angeles School of Medicine, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9180075" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
