Funded Activity Summary

This application seeks information on the factors controlling T cell survival, tolerance and responsiveness to foreign antigens and tumour antigens. Particular attention will be directed to determining how T cells are kept alive through contact with self ligands and cytokines while preserving self tolerance and how anti-tumour responses can improved without augmenting the function of T regulatory cells.
