Human dendritic cell functional specialization in steady state and inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Dendritic cells (DC) represent a heterogeneous population of antigen-presenting cells that are crucial in initiating and shaping immune responses. Although all DC are capable of antigen uptake, processing and presentation to T cells, DC subtypes differ ...

Immunogenicity of targeted lentivectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To increase the safety and possibly efficacy of HIV-1 derived lentivectors (LVs) as an anti-cancer vaccine, we recently developed the Nanobody (Nb) display technology to target LVs to antigen presenting cells (APCs).

Characterization of respiratory dendritic cells from equine lung tissues

open access: yesBMC Veterinary Research, 2017
Background Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that have multiple subpopulations with different phenotypes and immune functions. Previous research demonstrated that DCs have strong potential for anti-viral defense in the host.

Antigen depot is not required for alum adjuvanticity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Alum adjuvants have been in continuous clinical use for more than 80 yr. While the prevailing theory has been that depot formation and the associated slow release of antigen and/or inflammation are responsible for alum enhancement of antigen presentation

Function of B cells expressing a human immunoglobulin M rheumatoid factor autoantibody in transgenic mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
We have generated transgenic mice that express the immunoglobulin (Ig)M heavy chain and kappa light chain genes coding for a human IgM rheumatoid factor (RF), Les.

Liver antigen-presenting cells

open access: yesJournal of Hepatology, 2011
The liver is an organ in which several major pathogens evade immune clearance and achieve chronicity. How do they do it? Recent research has documented multiple mechanisms by which immune responses in the liver are biased towards tolerance. In this review, the induction of local, intrahepatic tolerance is explored from the perspective of antigen ...

Potential use of [gammadelta] T cell-based vaccines in cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Immunotherapy is a fast advancing methodology involving one of two approaches: 1) compounds targeting immune checkpoints, and 2) cellular immunomodulators.

Tumor necrosis factor-alpha regulates the expression of inducible costimulator receptor ligand on CD34+ progenitor cells during differentiation into antigen presenting cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The inducible costimulator receptor (ICOS) is a third member of the CD28 receptor family that regulates T cell activation and function. ICOS binds to a newly identified ligand on antigen presenting cells different from the CD152 ligands CD80 and CD86. We

The potential role of T-cells and their interaction with antigen-presenting cells in mediating immunosuppression following trauma-hemorrhage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Objective: Trauma-hemorrhage results in depressed immune responses of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and T-cells. Recent studies suggest a key role of depressed T-cell derived interferon (IFN)-g in this complex immune cell interaction.
