CTLA-4-mediated trans-endocytosis in the control of T cell co-stimulation

The signal threshold for the activation of a naïve T cell upon recognising its antigen is regulated tightly by the CD28/CTLA-4 - CD80/86 pathway. Within this framework, CTLA-4 has been shown to limit the availability of co-stimulation by physical removal of CD80 and CD86 from the APC, via the mecha...
