Antigen presentation by Langerhans cells [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2013 Langerhans cells and other skin-resident dendritic cells (DC) are required for the development of cutaneous adaptive immune responses. In vivo experiments using mice with selective DC-subset deficiencies and ex vivo experiments using isolated DC suggests that each subset makes a unique contribution to the adaptive response.

BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies, 2023 Immune cell activation is essential for cancer rejection; however, the tumor microenvironment leads to deterioration of immune function, which enables cancer cells to survive and proliferate. We previously reported that oral ingestion of Lentinula Edodes

Antigen Presentation by Vascular Cells [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 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 ...

Impact of Gold Nanoparticles on the Functions of Macrophages and Dendritic Cells
Cells, 2021 Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) have demonstrated outstanding performance in many biomedical applications. Their safety is recognised; however, their effects on the immune system remain ill defined. Antigen-presenting cells (APCs) are immune cells specialised

Recent Advances in Nanovaccines Using Biomimetic Immunomodulatory Materials
Pharmaceutics, 2019 The development of vaccines plays a vital role in the effective control of several fatal diseases. However, effective prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines have yet to be developed for completely curing deadly diseases, such as cancer, malaria, HIV, and ...

Antigen presentation to B cells [PDF]
F1000 Biology Reports, 2010 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.

Role of B cells as antigen presenting cells
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 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.
