HUMAN IMMUNE CELL MATURATION DURING ONTOGENY AND INFECTI

个体发育和感染期间的人类免疫细胞成熟该计划代表了加州大学、旧金山大学和弗朗西斯科大学和斯坦福大学的五名研究人员之间一项新的、充满希望的合作，他们都致力于人类免疫学的互补方面。这五个问题在个别单位调查影响人类免疫细胞成熟的调节机制，在个体发育和感染。每个站点描述了与该计划中至少一名其他调查员的合作，并反映了所涉及的调查员的共同兴趣和专业知识。我们所有的实验室都致力于研究人类免疫反应。这一承诺源于对人类疾病的兴趣，以及几种使用的研究系统在人类中与流行的小鼠模型系统明显不同的事实。这些项目共同定义了人类免疫反应与鼠和非人灵长类系统相比的独特方面，分析了信号传导和膜交通在调节人类淋巴发育中的作用，并研究了人类传染病对淋巴成熟和功能的影响。

HUMAN IMMUNE CELL MATURATION DURING ONTOGENY AND INFECTION This program represents a new and promising collaboration between five investigators at the University of California, San Francisco and Stanford University, all of whom work on complementary aspects on human immunology. The five problems addressed in the individual units investigate regulatory mechanisms influencing human immune cell maturation during ontogeny and infection. Each sit describes a collaboration with at least one other investigator in the program and reflects the shared interests and expertise of the investigators involved. All of our laboratories are committed to studying the human immune response. This commitment arises broth from an interest in human disease and the fact that several of use study systems that are markedly different in humans than in the prevailing mouse model systems. Together the proposed projects define unique aspects of the human immune response in comparison to murine and non-human primate systems, analyze the role of signaling and membrane traffic in regulation of human lymphoid development and study the effects of infectious diseases in humans on lymphoid maturation and function.
