Description: |
This study reviews the evidence that the expression of heat-shock proteins may interact with lymphocytes that bear the gamma-delta T cell receptor and result in the initiation of immunopathology. Emphasis is placed on studies examining human diseases where tissue damage is widespread. |
Synopsis: |
Characteristic of the heat shock or stress response is the synthesis of a family of fairly well-conserved proteins of various molecular sizes - the heat-shock proteins. This volume reviews the evidence that the expression of heat-shock proteins may interact with lymphocytes that bear the gamma-delta T cell receptor and result in the initiation of immunopathology. The possibility that this subset of lymphocytes is specialized to respond to heat-shock proteins has recently generated much interest. The material presented in this volume addresses the question from a pathological perspective. Particular emphasis is placed on studies that have examined human diseases where tissue damage is quite widespread. |
