| Abstract | CTLA-4 is a co-receptor that plays a pivotal role in regulating the threshold for T-cell activation. We recently reported that CTLA-4 ligation can over-ride the stop-signal induced by anti-CD3 ligation [Schneider H, Downey J, Smith A, Zinselmeyer BH, Rush C, Brewer JM, et al. Reversal of the TCR stop-signal by CTLA-4. Science 2006;313:1972]. While these studies compared CTLA-4 positive and negative T-cells from normal mice, little is known regarding the behaviour of T-cells from diseased Ctla4 deficient mice with auto-proliferative disease. In this study, we show that while activated wild-type and Ctla-4−/− T-cells have similar rates of motility, Ctla-4−/− T-cells show a marked resistance to the induction of a stop-signal by anti-CD3 ligation. By contrast, T-cells from normal mice and CD28 deficient mice underwent a normal slowing of motility in response to anti-CD3 ligation. Our findings identify a fundamental difference between normal versus CTLA-4−/− T-cells from diseased mice in the regulation of motility by anti-CD3 ligation. This dysregulation of motility may contribute to the tissue infiltration and the autoimmune disorder observed in Ctla-4−/− mice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
