Dysregulation of interleukin‐7 receptor may generate loss of cytotoxic T cell response in human immunodeficiency virus type 1 infection
1 Dec 1994
Abstract excerpt
Virus-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play a crucial role in modulating an immune response against human immunodeficiency type 1 (HIV-1) infection. The generation of effector cytotoxic cells from CTL precursors involves intricate interactions with antigen via T cell receptors (TcR) and soluble cytokines. Interleukin (IL)-7 can affect T cell maturation and differentiation. Here we report on a group of five...
