# IMMUNOBIOLOGY OF MHC RESTRICTION OF T CELLS

> **NIH NIH R01** · DANA-FARBER CANCER INST · 1992 · $207,772

## Abstract

The study of antigen-specific, MHC restricted T cell interactions
has been a major focus of our laboratory.  This project addresses
three aspects of MHC restricted antigen-presentation to T
lymphocytes.

1.  The nature of processed antigens and their membrane display
on antigen-presenting cells.

2.  The manipulation of antigens and antigen-presentation to
increase immunogenicity.

3.  The role of non-MHC encoded structures in antigen-
presentation and cell-cell interaction.

These issues will be investigated with defined antigens both in
vivo and in vitro, the latter with transformed clones of functional
specific T cells in conjunction with cloned antigen-presenting
cells and model membranes.
