Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Seetha M Lakshmi Tamma"

  • Seetha M Lakshmi Tamma's research primarily focuses on the intracellular signaling mechanisms involved in T cell activation and cytokine synthesis, particularly in relation to the lectin jacalin and its effects when combined with CD28 costimulation.
  • Key findings reveal that jacalin plus CD28 stimulation significantly induces IL-4 secretion through the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-6 and is influenced by the p38 MAPK pathway.
  • Additionally, Tamma's studies indicate that immunoglobulin D receptor cross-linking protects murine T cells from apoptosis, shedding light on potential therapeutic avenues for managing immune responses.
