TIM-3 Engagement Promotes Effector Memory T Cell Differentiation of Human Antigen-Specific CD8 T Cells by Activating mTORC1
10 Nov 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract T cell expression of TIM-3 following Ag encounter has been associated with a continuum of functional states ranging from effector memory T cells to exhaustion. We have designed an in vitro culture system to specifically address the impact of anti–TIM-3/TIM-3 engagement on human Ag-specific CD8 T cells during a normal response to Ag and found that anti–TIM-3 treatment enhances T cell function. In our in...
