Abstract
T cells are white blood cells which play a central role in fighting disease. In certain disease states, such as arthritis, diabetes, psoriasis etc, T cells become activated inappropriately and therapies are then directed at suppressing T cell activation. The aim of the present project is to find out how various reagents currently in clinical trials act to inhibit T cell functions.
