1. T-cell development and differentiation

2. T-cell diversity is generated in the thymus The TCR is a recognition unit that looks like an arm of the BCR In which the μ and β chains, and the light chains and the α-chains are homologuos The main mechanisms of gene rearrangements are similar for the TCR and BCR CDR1,2, 3, loops in theTCRα and TCRβ chains

3. A T-cell precursors migrate from the bone marrow to thymus

4. T-cell markers are induced after thymocytes interact with the thymic epithelial cells

5. A Notch-1receptor and its cytoplasmic region, acting as a transcription factor is required for the development of the T-cell lineage

6. Less V-segments, but the Delta-chain has large junctional diversity Vg9Vd2 T cells can recognize PAgs (such as isopentenyl pyrophosphate, IPP) that are accumulated in tumour cells Pags: natural phospho-antigens Az αβ and γδ T-cells recognize different antigens 1-5 % of T-cells in the blood But γδ T-cells are the dominant type in epithelia Unlike αβ T-cells recognition of antigens by γδ T-cells is independent of MHC. They recognize phosphorylated metabolites produced by many microbes. Tumor-specific immune response

9. Diversity of the BCR and the TCR

10. The αβ and γδ T-cell lineages develop from a common precursor

11. A β-chain rearrangement (like Ig heavy chain) A TCR-rearrangement—similar to BCR Efficiency of beta chain rearrangement is about 80% RAG-1 RAG-2 genes become are inactivated Timocyte proliferation CD4, CD8 expressionó

12. The α-Chain rearrangement (Ig light chain) TCR-rearrangement is similar to that of the BCR

15. Shaping the T-cell repertoire. Positive and negative selection Thymus

16. Few TCR reacts with the MHC (about 2%) most T-cells die of neglect. ( no survival signals) α-chain rearrangement can continue until the assembly of a functional αβ receptor has been assembled.
