Regulation of Streptococcus pneumoniae distribution by Toll-like receptor 2 in vivo.

abstract：:We examined the expression of seven V alpha or V beta T cell receptor (TCR) segments on human CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. Confirming previously published results, we found a preferential expression of four V segment gene products on CD4+ T cells. One of these markers (V beta 6.7) was constantly expressed on more CD4+ T cel...
