In immunology, a naive T cell (T h 0 cell) is a T cell that has differentiated in the thymus, and successfully undergone the positive and negative processes of central selection in the thymus. Among these are the naive forms of helper T cells ( CD4 + ) and cytotoxic T cells ( CD8 + ).
Priming of naive CD8 T cells generates cytotoxic T cells capable of directly killing pathogen-infected cells. CD4 cells develop into a diverse array of effector cell types depending on the nature of the signals they receive during priming. CD4 effector activity can include cytotoxicity, but more frequently it involves the secretion of a set of ...
The remaining cells exit the thymus as mature naive T cells, also known as recent thymic emigrants. [13] This process is an important component of central tolerance and serves to prevent the formation of self-reactive T cells that are capable of inducing autoimmune diseases in the host.
CD2 was shown to prime naive T cells (T N) even without CD28 or TCR. [2] Also, CD27 is a receptor constitutively expressed on T N (its expression is downregulated upon TCR stimulation) and enhances T cell proliferation. [9] The differentiation of T helper cells (T H) into different subsets also partially depends on their co-stimulatory molecules.
CD28 is the only B7 receptor consistently expressed on naive T cells. In the absence of CD28:B7 interaction, a naive T cell's TCR engagement with an MHC:antigen complex leads to anergy. CD28 is also expressed on bone marrow stromal cells, plasma cells, neutrophils, and eosinophils, although its function in these cells is not fully understood ...
CD3 (cluster of differentiation 3) is a protein complex and T cell co-receptor that is involved in activating both the cytotoxic T cell (CD8+ naive T cells) and T helper cells (CD4+ naive T cells). [1] It is composed of four distinct chains. In mammals, the complex contains a CD3γ chain, a CD3δ chain, and two CD3ε chains.
Quiescence can prevent naive T cell activation after tonic signaling, meaning that T cells may be constitutively activated when not in the presence of a ligand. [21] After antigen exposure and costimulation, naive T cells start the process called quiescence exit, which results in proliferation and effector differentiation. [22]
Maturation of RTE in SLO results in the generation of mature naive T cells (naïve meaning they have never been exposed to the antigen that they are programmed to respond to), but naive T cells now lack or have downregulated (reduced) expression of the RTE-related surface markers, such as CD31, PTK7, Complement Receptor 1 and 2 (CR1, CR2) and ...
