Cell surface molecules and early events involved in human T lymphocyte activation

A Weiss, JB Imboden - Advances in immunology, 1987 - Elsevier
Publisher Summary Antigen-specific and non-antigen-specific ligand-receptor binding
events result in the transduction of these events into intracellular biochemical signals in the
form of “second messengers.” The summation of these events is the expression of the
phenotype of an activated T cell. The diverse manifestations of T cell activation include the
production of lymphokines, the appearance of new cell surface proteins, the acquisition of
cytolytic effector function, and—as a consequence of the production of growth factors and …
