Abstract excerpt
Anti-CD3epsilon monoclonal antibody induces programmed cell death of thymocytes and accelerates activation-induced cell death (AICD) by apoptosis of matured or transformed T lymphocytes. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of this phenomenon is unclear. Therefore, we produced a chimera protein (termed CD8epsilon by fusing the extracellular and transmembrane domains of human CD8alpha to the intracellular...
