Collective Classification of Textual Documents by Guided Self-Organization in T-Cell Cross-Regulation Dynamics

, 2011
We present and study an agent-based model of T-Cell cross-regulation in the adaptive immune system, which we apply to binary classification. Our method expands an existing analytical model of T-cell cross-regulation (Carneiro et al. in Immunol Rev 216(1):

Eicosanoid control over antigen presenting cells in asthma [PDF]

, 2018
Asthma is a common lung disease affecting 300 million people worldwide. Allergic asthma is recognized as a prototypical Th2 disorder, orchestrated by an aberrant adaptive CD4+ T helper (Th2/Th17) cell immune response against airborne allergens, that ...

The effect of artificial antigen-presenting cells with preclustered anti-CD28/-CD3/-LFA-1 monoclonal antibodies on the induction of ex vivo expansion of functional human antitumor T cells

Haematologica, 2008
Background Adoptive cell therapy with ex vivo expanded autologous antitumor cytotoxic T lymphocytes represents an important therapeutic option as an anticancer strategy.

Parabiosis reveals the correlation between the recruitment of circulating antigen presenting cells to the retina and the induction of spontaneous autoimmune uveoretinitis

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background Characterizing immune cells and conditions that govern their recruitment and function in autoimmune diseases of the nervous system or in neurodegenerative processes is an area of active investigation. We sought to analyze the origin of antigen

Differential T cell accumulation within intracranial and subcutaneous melanomas is associated with differences in intratumoral myeloid cells

Cancer Immunology, Immunotherapy
Patients with metastatic brain melanomas (MBM) experience shorter-lasting survival than patients with extracranial metastases, and this is associated with a higher fraction of dysfunctional CD8 T cells.

The antigen presentation function of bone marrow-derived mast cells is spatiotemporally restricted to a subset expressing high levels of cell surface FcεRI and MHC II

BMC Immunology, 2010
Background At present, it is highly controversial whether pure mast cells can serve as antigen presenting cells, and it is not known whether the capacity of antigen presenting function is temporally restricted to a particular subset of differentiated ...

Targeting Antigen-Presenting Cells in Multiple Sclerosis Treatment

Applied Sciences, 2021
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is common neurological disease of the central nervous system (CNS) affecting mostly young adults. Despite decades of studies, its etiology and pathogenesis are not fully unraveled and treatment is still insufficient.

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.

Early signaling defects in human T cells anergized by T cell presentation of autoantigen. [PDF]

, 1992
Major histocompatibility complex class II-positive human T cell clones are nontraditional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that are able to simultaneously present and respond to peptide or degraded antigen, but are unable to process intact protein ...
