activated T lymphocyte proliferation, activated T-cell proliferation, activated T-lymphocyte proliferation, proliferation of activated T cells

Description

The expansion of a T cell population following activation by an antigenic stimulus.

Comment

Note that this term refers to the proliferation of previously activated T cells; it is to be used for gene products involved in T cell proliferation following an antigenic stimulus, including both proteins internal to the T cell and external factors, such as IL-2, which specifically promote proliferation of activated T cells.
