Others have demonstrated that inactivation of Rho in monocytes promotes cellular adhesion to β1 integrin substrates [ 37 ] . Static cell adhesion studies rely on a number of factors including integrin affinity regulation, integrin avidity/clustering, and shear resistant cell shape changes.
, whereby CD81 ligation induces an increase in LFA-1 avidity for ICAM-3 on accessory cells, resulting in an indirect activation effect on the T cells.
“Recognition efficiency” (RE) (also known as “functional avidity”) is a measure of the sensitivity of a T cell to different peptide concentrations for stimulation [24,25,26].
Receptor avidity may be a reflection of increased glucose levels in the blood and tissues.
T-lymphocytes expressing the α:β T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) consist of two major subsets: T cells expressing the CD4 surface glycoprotein, which are restricted by the major hystocompatibility complex (MHC) class II proteins, and CD8 +T cells, which interact with antigen presented by MHC class I proteins [ 1 ] . CD4 and CD8 molecules bind to monomorphic regions on class II and class I MHC proteins respectively, thereby increasing the avidity in the interaction of the TCR with antigen presenting cells [ 2 ] . An intriguing question concerns to the mechanism by which selection and tolerance to self-components is mediated in developing lymphocytes.
