Investigation of intracellular signals generated by γ-interferon and IL-4 leading to the induction of class II antigen expression by S. Vassiliadis, N. Kyrpides, D. Stravopodis, M. Grigoriou, I. Athanassakis, J. Papamatheakis

“…This diversity of activation reveals the existence of a previously unknown complicated network of intracellular interactions able to regulate the same phenotype or cellular event. As major histocompatibility complex antigens (MHC) or human leukocyte antigens (HLA), are important in immune recognition and response, the results show that for human cells a more coherent method of HLA-DR antigen induction is followed after γ-IFN administration, as calcium participation seems to be the first step in signal transduction. …”

“…However, in leukemia, most studies on the cytotoxic potential of T cells have concentrated only on T cells that recognize peptide antigens (Ag) presented by polymorphic molecules of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). This ignores the great potential of unconventional T cell populations, which include gamma-delta T cells (γδ), natural killer T cells (NKT), and mucosal-associated invariant T cells (MAIT). …”

Feature selection enhances peptide binding predictions for TCR-specific interactions by Hamid Teimouri, Hamid Teimouri, Zahra S. Ghoreyshi, Zahra S. Ghoreyshi, Anatoly B. Kolomeisky, Anatoly B. Kolomeisky, Anatoly B. Kolomeisky, Jason T. George, Jason T. George, Jason T. George, Jason T. George

“…IntroductionT-cell receptors (TCRs) play a critical role in the immune response by recognizing specific ligand peptides presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. Accurate prediction of peptide binding to TCRs is essential for advancing immunotherapy, vaccine design, and understanding mechanisms of autoimmune disorders.MethodsThis study presents a theoretical approach that explores the impact of feature selection techniques on enhancing the predictive accuracy of peptide binding models tailored for specific TCRs. …”
