Antigen cross-presentation of immune complexes [PDF]
The ability of dendritic cells (DC) to cross-present tumor antigens has long been a focus of interest of physicians, as well as basic scientists, that aim to establish efficient cell-based cancer immune therapy. A prerequisite for exploiting this pathway

Live Long and Prosper for Antigen Cross-Presentation [PDF]
Even though proteolytic antigen fragments are displayed for cross-presentation, rapid proteolysis of endocytosed antigens inhibits this process. In this issue of Immunity, Alloatti et al. (2015) describe how maturing dendritic cells keep phagosomes and lysosomes apart to ensure extended antigen life that leads to prosperous cross-presentation.

Pathways for antigen cross presentation
Dendritic cells (DCs) have the unique ability to capture cellular tissue antigens, and to present them on MHC class I molecules to antigen-specific CD8(+) T lymphocytes after migration to the draining lymph nodes. This process, called "cross presentation" can lead either to the tolerization or activation of antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells.

The Role of Heat Shock Proteins in Antigen Cross Presentation [PDF]
Heat shock proteins (HSP) are molecular chaperones that can bind tumor antigens (Ag) and mediate their uptake into antigen presenting cells (APC). HSP-antigen complexes are then directed towards the MHC class I pathway through antigen cross presentation ...

Cross presentation of antigen by dendritic cells: mechanisms and implications for immunotherapy
Dendritic cells (DCs) possess the specialized potential to present exogenously derived antigen to cytotoxic T lymphocytes to elicit an immune response. This process, termed cross presentation, is crucial in the generation of immune response to viruses, tumors and in autoimmune disease.

Despite its crucial role in initiation of cytotoxic immune responses, the molecular pathways underlying antigen cross-presentation remain incompletely understood.

The purinergic receptor P2X7 as a modulator of viral vector-mediated antigen cross-presentation [PDF]
IntroductionModified Vaccinia Virus Ankara (MVA) is a safe vaccine vector inducing long- lasting and potent immune responses. MVA-mediated CD8+T cell responses are optimally induced, if both, direct- and cross-presentation of viral or recombinant ...
