Evidence implicating the Ras pathway in multiple CD28 costimulatory functions in CD4+ T cells.

CD28 costimulation is a critical event in the full activation of CD4(+) T cells that augments cytokine gene transcription, promotes cytokine mRNA stability, prevents induction of anergy, increases cellular metabolism, and increases cell survival. However, despite extensive biochemical analysis of th...
