T cell antigen receptor signaling is triggered and controlled in specialized cellular interfaces formed between T cells and antigen-presenting cells named immunological synapses. Both microtubules and actin cytoskeleton rearrange at the immunological synapse in response to T cell receptor triggering, ensuring in turn the accuracy of intracellular signaling. Recent reports show that the cross-talk between the cortical actin cytoskeleton and microtubule networks is key for structuring the immunological synapse and for controlling T cell receptor signaling. Immunological synapse architecture and the interaction between the signaling machinery and various cytoskeletal elements are therefore crucial for the fine-tuning of T cell signaling.
