abstract：:The MHC class I antigens enhance the T cell response to various mitogenic stimuli. Class I antigens co-cap and associate with the CD3 structure on these cells. The present work shows that co-aggregation of these MHC antigens with CD3 induces a sustained elevated Ca2+ response in T cells. The duration required for a 50...
