Role of B cells as antigen presenting cells [PDF]
B cells have been long studied for their role and function in the humoral immune system. Apart from generating antibodies and an antibody-mediated memory response against pathogens, B cells are also capable of generating cell-mediated immunity.

Antigen Presenting Cells and Antigen Presentation in Tertiary Lymphoid Organs [PDF]
Tertiary lymphoid organs (TLOs) form in territorialized niches of peripheral tissues characterised by the presence of antigens; however, little is known about mechanism(s) of antigen handling by ectopic lymphoid structures.

Antigen-Presenting Cells in Psoriasis [PDF]
Psoriasis is classically considered a chronic inflammatory skin disorder, however the identification of autoantigens in its pathogenesis established it as a T cell mediated autoimmune disease.

Reprogramming Cancer Cells to Antigen-presenting Cells [PDF]
Cancer cells evade the immune system by downregulating antigen presentation. Although immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) and adoptive T-cell therapies revolutionized cancer treatment, their efficacy relies on the intrinsic immunogenicity of tumor cells ...

Antigen Presentation by Extracellular Vesicles from Professional Antigen-Presenting Cells. [PDF]
The initiation and maintenance of adaptive immunity require multifaceted modes of communication between different types of immune cells, including direct intercellular contact, secreted soluble signaling molecules, and extracellular vesicles (EVs).

Antigen-Presenting Cells in the Skin.
Professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in the skin include dendritic cells, monocytes, and macrophages. They are highly dynamic, with the capacity to enter skin from the peripheral circulation, patrol within tissue, and migrate through lymphatics ...

The Antigen Presenting Cells Instruct Plasma Cell Differentiation
The professional antigen presenting cells (APCs), including many subsets of dendritic cells and macrophages, not only mediate prompt but nonspecific response against microbes, but also bridge the antigen-specific adaptive immune response through antigen ...

Antigenic peptide delivery to antigen-presenting cells using a CD40-coiled coil affinity-based platform [PDF]
Delivery of antigenic peptides to antigen presenting cells (APCs) such as dendritic cells (DCs) using monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) is an attractive approach to evoke antigen-specific T cell activation and improve drug efficacy.

Significance Immunosuppressive Tregs constitutively express CTLA-4, an immune checkpoint receptor. Addressing the role of CTLA-4 in Treg-suppressive function, we show that Treg-expressed CTLA-4, even in the absence of its cytoplasmic portion, promoted ...
