Stochastic model of T Cell repolarization during target elimination (I)
2019-11-08
Abstract excerpt
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (T) and natural killer (NK) cells are the main cytotoxic killer cells of the human body to eliminate pathogen-infected or tumorigenic cells (i.e. target cells). Once a NK or T cell has identified a target cell, they form a tight contact zone, the immunological synapse (IS). One then observes a re-polarization of the cell involving the rotation of the microtubule (MT) half-spindle and a move...
