Cytoskeletal tension actively sustains the migratory T cell synaptic contact

2018-10-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> When migratory T cells encounter antigen presenting cells (APCs), they arrest and form radially symmetric, stable intercellular junctions termed immunological synapses which facilitate exchange of crucial biochemical information and are critical for T cell immunity. While the cellular processes underlying synapse formation have been well-characterized, those that maintain the symmetry, and thereb...
