The clonal selection hypothesis is a widely accepted
... Receptor occupation is required for cell activation. The differentiated effector cells derived from an activated lymphocyte will bear receptors of identical specificity as the parental cell. Those lymphocytes bearing receptors for self molecules will be deleted at an early stage. In 1954, Danish imm ...

Modulation of Function of Myeloid Cell Precursors by Thapsigargan
... Introduction: Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that have an increased ability to suppress Tcell immune response. This allows for tumors, infection, and inflammation to persist without any immune effector regulation. In this study, we ai ...
