The promiscuous development of an unconventional Qa1b-restricted T cell population

M. A. Manoharan Valerio, K. Arana, J. Guan, S. Wei Chan, X. Yang, N. S. Kurd, A. Lee, N. Shastri, L. Coscoy, E. Robey

The paper identifies a CD8 T cell population, QFL T cells, restricted to MHC-E that develops independently of classical MHC I and requires Qa1b for agonist selection and functionality.

Functional delineation of tissue-resident CD8 T cell heterogeneity during infection and cancer

J. J. Milner, C. Toma, Z. He, N. S. Kurd, Q. P. Nguyen, B. McDonald, L. Quezada, C. E. Widjaja, D. A. Witherden, J. T. Crowl, G. W. Yeo, J. T. Chang, K. D. Omilusik, A. W. Goldrath

This study identifies distinct CD8+ T cell subsets in non-lymphoid tissues during infection and cancer, revealing their functional roles and regulatory mechanisms.

Factors that influence the thymic selection of CD8αα intraepithelial lymphocytes

N. S. Kurd, A. Hoover, J. Yoon, B. M. Weist, E. A. Robey

The paper investigates factors influencing thymic selection of CD8αα intraepithelial lymphocytes, finding that CD8 IEL development requires a higher TCR affinity threshold than negative selection.

A role for phagocytosis in inducing cell death during thymocyte negative selection

N. S. Kurd, L. K. Lutes, J. Yoon, I. L. Dzhagalov, A. Hoover, E. A. Robey

This study shows that phagocytosis enhances negative selection of autoreactive thymocytes by promoting their death, with more efficient elimination when phagocytes also present the negative selecting peptide.
