The ins and outs of T cell signaling
2022
Jean M. Kanellopoulos | David M. Ojcius
This special edition summarizes major advances in our understanding of signaling by T lymphocytes. T cell interactions with antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and other immune cells are characterized by changes in T cell adhesion and major rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton. This issue describes some of the mediators of these changes both within the T cells and on the T cell surface. The five articles focus on “inside-out integrin signaling” in T cells, components of the immunological synapse between lymphocyte and APCs, an unexpected role for T cell receptor (TCR) signaling from endosomes, transfer of membrane constituents from APCs to T cells via trogocytosis, immune deficiencies in these T cell signaling pathways, and the role of thymocyte-expressed molecule involved in selection (THEMIS) in thymocyte development and peripheral T cell function.
