Abstract

Antigen receptor-stimulated cell death of developing, immature T cells plays an important role in shaping the repertoire of antigens to which mature T cells will respond, but a role for receptor-stimulated death in controlling responses of mature T cells is controversial. Mutant lpr/lpr mice exhibit an autoimmune syndrome similar to systemic lupus erythematosus. Here we demonstrate that these mice have a defect in antigen-stimulated suicide of activated T cells in mature CD4+ and CD8+ T cell compartments. The defective suicide pathway is evident when the T cells are stimulated with antigen on antigen-presenting cells or with immobilized anti-CD3 in the absence of antigen-presenting cells. These studies, in concert with the work of others, suggest that antigen-stimulated death of mature cells may be important both in establishing peripheral tolerance and in limiting inflammation during normal immune responses.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
