Method for modulating activity of T lymphocytes |
摘要 |
The invention relates to methods and compositions which modulate T lymphocyte activity. It has been found that two, T lymphocyte receptors, especially TCR and CD8, are present at a distance from each other on T lymphocyte surfaces. Via use of modulators which change the distance between these receptors, the activity of the T lymphocyte is modulated. |

1. A method for increasing activity of a T lymphocyte consisting of contacting said T lymphocyte with a composition consisting of a galectin-3 ligand and a carrier, in an amount sufficient to reduce distance between a T cell receptor and a T lymphocyte co-receptor to a point sufficient to increase activity of said T lymphocyte, said contacting occurring in vitro. |
