The second touch hypothesis states that T cell activation, proliferation, induction of homing receptors and polarization are distinguishable and, at least in part, sequential. The second touch hypothesis maintains that full T cell polarization requires T

Adoptive Transfer of Lung Antigen Presenting Cells
Our protocol describes adoptive transfer of antigen presenting cells (APCs) isolated from the lungs by enzymatic digestion and magnetic enrichment. This protocol can be used to study APC functions and trafficking.

Transition between immune and disease states in a cellular automaton model of clonal immune response
In this paper we extend the Celada-Seiden (CS) model of the humoral immune response to include infectious virus and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (cellular response).

Antigen Presentation by MHC-Dressed Cells [PDF]
Professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) such as conventional dendritic cells (DCs) process protein antigens to MHC-bound peptides and then present the peptide-MHC complexes to T cells. In addition to this canonical antigen presentation pathway, recent studies have revealed that DCs and non-APCs can acquire MHC class I (MHCI) and/or MHC class II ...

Immunohistochemical analysis of Langerhans cells in chronic gingivitis using anti-CD1a antibody
Background: The Langerhans cells (LCs) are dendritic cells (DCs) which belong to the group of antigen presenting cells (APCs). Their function is to recognize the antigen, capture it, and present it to the T lymphocytes; thus initiating an early immune ...

Aim: Antigen (Ag) presentation by Ag-presenting cells (APCs) is the first step in the generation of adaptive humoral and cellular immune responses. However, there have been few studies on the effects of flavonoids on APC function.
