The CD28 ligand B7/BB1 provides costimulatory signal for alloactivation of CD4+ T cells.
1 Mar 1991
Abstract excerpt
Activation via the T lymphocyte cell surface molecule CD28 provides a potent amplification signal for interleukin 2 (IL-2) production in several in vitro systems. The B lymphocyte activation antigen, B7/BB1, is a natural ligand for CD28. Here we investigate the role of CD28 and B7/BB1 in primary activation of CD4+ T lymphocytes stimulated with allogeneic B lymphoblastoid cell lines. A subset of peripheral CD4+ T...
