Homeostasis of memory T cells

Surh, Charles D., Boyman, Onur, Purton, Jared F., Sprent, Jonathan·2006·Immunological Reviews

Abstract

Summary: The pool of memory T cells is regulated by homeostatic mechanisms to persist for prolonged periods at a relatively steady overall size. Recent work has shown that two members of the common γ chain (γc) family of cytokines, interleukin‐7 (IL‐7) and IL‐15, govern homeostasis of memory T cells. These two cytokines work in conjunction to support memory T‐cell survival and intermittent background proliferation. Normal animals contain significant numbers of spontaneously arising memory‐phenotype (MP) cells, though whether these cells are representative of true antigen‐specific memory T cells is unclear. Nevertheless, it appears that the two types of memory cells do not display identical homeostatic requirements. For antigen‐specific memory CD8+ T cells, IL‐7 is primarily important for survival while IL‐15 is crucial for their background proliferation. For memory CD4+ T cells, IL‐7 has an important role, whereas the influence of IL‐15 is still unclear.

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.
