Abstract:Interaction between antigen presenting cells and T lymphocytes, through receptors and co-stimulatory molecules present on the surface of these cells, is one of the key means to modulate the adaptive immune system. Tucaresol, a Schiff-base-forming chemical, can be used as a substitute for the physiological donor of carbonyl groups of antigen presenting cells, which can interact with the amine groups of T lymphocytes to modulate the adaptive immune system. This study was done to determine whether tucaresol can e… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
