IL-7 signaling is required for thymocyte development and its loss has a severe deleterious effect on thymus function. Thymocyte–stromal cell interactions and other mechanisms tightly regulate IL-7 expression. We show that disruption of that regulat

Interleukin-7 (IL-7) is a homeostatic cytokine for resting T cells with increasing serum and tissue levels during T cell depletion. In preclinical studies, IL-7 therapy exerts marked stimulating effects on T cell immune reconstitution in mice and pri

CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T (T(reg)) cells have a crucial role in maintaining immune tolerance. Mice and humans born lacking T(reg) cells develop severe autoimmune disease, and depletion of T(reg) cells in lymphopenic mice induces autoimmunity. Interl

Inadequate costimulation by solid tumors is generally believed to induce immune tolerance during primary tumor growth. We looked for tumor-specific immunity vs. tolerance in patients with Ewing's sarcoma. Circulating T cells from patients with progre

Identification of differentially expressed genes between normal and diseased states is an area of intense current medical research that can lead to the discovery of new therapeutic targets. However, isolation of differentially expressed genes by subt

Two patients with Bruton's X-linked agammaglobulinemia are described with bacteremia and skin/bone infection due to an organism which by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis was most closely related to "Flexispira" rappini (and thus designated a Flexispir

In the present study, we show that human self-MHC-reactive (autoreactive) T cell clones are functionally distinct from Ag-specific T cell clones. Self-MHC-reactive T cells exhibited helper function for B cell Ig production when cultured with non-T ce

Wegener’s granulomatosis (WG) is a granulomatous vasculitis that affects the upper respiratory tract, lung, and kidney. Since T cells make up a significant proportion of cells infiltrating granulomatous lesions in WG, we investigated the proliferat

This unit describes procedures for the isolation of pure human B cell populations. Two broad approaches to the isolation of pure human B cell populations are available, one based on techniques of negative selection and the other using positive select
