Resumen

Los clonotipos de células T se expanden en tumores y tejidos adyacentes, y su presencia en la sangre ayuda a la identificación del paciente para la terapia anti-PD-L1. Esto sugiere que la reposición continua de células T alimenta la inmunidad del cáncer y la respuesta al tratamiento.

T Cell Activation and Clonal Selection

T cells are integral to our adaptive immune system, recognizing and effectively responding to foreign antigens. T cell activation and clonal selection are pivotal in orchestrating this immune response. This article elucidates these mechanisms, detailing the roles of cluster of differentiation (CD) markers, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, costimulatory signals, and the process of clonal selection.
Naive T cells that have not yet encountered an antigen express two primary CD...
