Subunit composition of pre-T cell receptor complexes expressed by primary thymocytes: CD3 delta is physically associated but not functionally requiredM A Berger
Division of Basic Sciences, Immunobiology Working Group, Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19111, USA
J Exp Med 186:1461-7. 1997..Thus, pre-TCRs do not require the full array of TCR-associated signaling subunits (gamma, delta, epsilon, and zeta), possibly because pT alpha itself possesses signaling capabilities...
Signals transduced by CD3epsilon, but not by surface pre-TCR complexes, are able to induce maturation of an early thymic lymphoma in vitroM Carleton
Fox Chase Cancer Center, Immunobiology Working Group, Division of Basic Sciences, Philadelphia, PA 19111, USA
J Immunol 163:2576-85. 1999..Our current working hypothesis is that CD3epsilon fails to promote in vitro maturation when in the context of an Ab-engaged pre-TCR because another pre-TCR subunit(s), possibly TCRzeta, qualitatively alters the CD3epsilon signal...
