ADHESION<br />

T-cells are collected,<br />

cultured, and activated<br />

with interleukin-2<br />

ADA Gene<br />

Cultured T-Cell<br />

DIAPEDESIS<br />

Retrovirus carrying the ADA gene<br />

infects the cultured T-cells,<br />

transferring the gene into the cell<br />

ADA gene is inserted into the<br />

T-cell genome during cell division<br />

Gene therapy for ADA deficiency.<br />

adhesion receptors<br />

Proteins in cell membranes that facilitate the interaction of<br />

cells with matrix. They play a significant role in adherence<br />

and chemoattraction in cell migration. They are divided<br />

into three groups, the first of which is the immunoglobulin<br />

superfamily that contains the T cell receptor/CD3, CD4,<br />

CD8, MHC class I, MHC class II, sCD2/LFA-2, LFA-3/<br />

CD58, ICAM-1, ICAM-2, and VCAM-2. The second group<br />

of adhesion receptors is made up of the integrin family containing<br />

LFA-1, Mac-1, p150,95, VLA-5, VLA-4/LPAM-1,<br />

LPAM-2, and LPAM-3. The third family consists of selectin<br />

molecules including Mel-14/LAM-1, ELAM-1, and CD62.<br />

adjuvant<br />

Substance that facilitates or enhances the immune response<br />

to an antigen with which it is combined. Various types have<br />

been described, including Freund’s complete and incomplete<br />

adjuvants, aluminum compounds, and muramyl dipeptide.<br />

Some of these act by forming a depot in tissues from which<br />

an antigen is slowly released. In addition, Freund’s adjuvant
