Superantigens increase the survival of mice bearing T cell lymphomas by inducing apoptosis of neoplastic cells.
Superantigens bind to major histocompatibility complex class II molecules and interact with T cells expressing a particular T cell receptor Vβ inducing a strong proliferation/deletion response of the superantigen-reactive T cells. However, there have been no attempts to investigate the ability of Sa...
