T cell antigen discovery via Signaling and Antigen presenting Bifunctional Receptors [PDF]
CD8+ T cells recognize and eliminate tumors in an antigen-specific manner. Despite progress in characterizing the antitumor T cell repertoire and function, the identification of target antigens remains a challenge.

A Comparative Immunohistochemical Analysis of Langerhans Cells in Oral Mucosa, Oral Lichen Planus and Oral Squamous Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
Background: Langerhans cells (LCs) are immunocompetent cells resident within oral mucosa which, together with intraepithelial lymphocytes, play a role in mucosal defence.

Effect of Cellular-Based Artificial Antigen Presenting Cells Expressing ICOSL, in T-cell Subtypes Differentiation and Activation [PDF]
Purposes: Effective and selective T-cell activation and proliferation during the T-cell expansion phase of a cellular adoptive immunotherapy method, challenging because recent studies revealed the importance of each subtype of T-cells in different ...

Tumor Antigen Presentation by Dermal Antigen-Presenting Cells [PDF]
Several phenotypes of antigen-presenting cells are present in the dermis, where they presumably function to present encountered antigens for immune responses. This study examined the ability of dermal antigen-presenting cells to present tumor-associated antigens for the induction of in vivo antitumor immunity.

Antigen Presentation by Vascular Cells [PDF]
Antigen presentation by cells of the vessel wall may initiate rapid and localized memory immune responses in peripheral tissues. Peptide antigens displayed on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules on the surface of endothelial cells (ECs) can be recognized by T cell receptors on circulating effector memory T cells (TEM), triggering both ...

Antigen-Presenting Cells and Antigen Presentation in Tertiary Lymphoid Organs [PDF]
Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) form in territorialized niches of peripheral tissues characterized by the presence of antigens; however, little is known about mechanism(s) of antigen handling by ectopic lymphoid structures. In this mini review, we will discuss the role of antigen-presenting cells and mechanisms of antigen presentation in TLOs ...

Antigen presentation to B cells [PDF]
B cells are capable of mounting responses to a bewildering range of potentially pathogenic antigens through the production of high-affinity antibodies and the establishment of immunological memory. Thus, regulated B-cell activation is critical for protection against a variety of bacterial and viral infections, as well as cancers.

Evasion of Immunological Memory by S. aureus Infection: Implications for Vaccine Design
Recurrent S. aureus infections are common, suggesting that natural immune responses are not protective. All candidate vaccines tested thus far have failed to protect against S.
