Figure 2. Activation of naive T-cells requires two independent signals. The binding of the peptide:MHC complex by the T-cell receptor and, in this example, the CD4 co-receptor transmits a signal (signal 1 indicated by arrow 1) to the T-cell that antigen has been recognized. Activation of naive T-cells requires a second signal (signal 2 indicated by arrow), the co-stimulatory signal, which is delivered by the same antigen-presenting cell (APC).

Figure 1-14: Cellular Interactions Cellular interactions involved in induction of immune responses. Activation and proliferation of TH cells. (a) is required for generation of humoral response (b) and cell-mediated response to altered self-cells (c). APC = antigen-presenting cell; Ag = antigen.
