Study of two different subpopulations of anti-acetylcholine receptor antibodies in a rabbit with experimental auto-immune myasthenia gravis.

abstract：:Adoptive T-cell therapy (ATCT) can result in tumor rejection, yet the behavior and fate of the introduced T cells remain unclear. We developed a novel bioluminescence mouse model, which enabled highly sensitive detection of T-cell signals at the single-cell level. Transferred T cells preferentially accumulated within ...
