Antigen processing and remodeling of the endosomal pathway: requirements for antigen cross-presentation. [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
The cross-presentation of endocytosed antigen as peptide/class I MHC complexes plays a central role in the elicitation of CD8+ T cell clones that mediate anti-viral and anti-tumor immune responses.

Regulation of the Cell Biology of Antigen Cross-Presentation [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 2018
Antigen cross-presentation is an adaptation of the cellular process of loading MHC-I molecules with endogenous peptides during their biosynthesis within the endoplasmic reticulum. Cross-presented peptides derive from internalized proteins, microbial pathogens, and transformed or dying cells.

Chemotherapy enhances cross-presentation of nuclear tumor antigens. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Cross-presentation of tumor antigen is essential for efficient priming of naïve CD8⁺ T lymphocytes and induction of effective anti-tumor immunity. We hypothesized that the subcellular location of a tumor antigen could affect the efficiency of cross ...

Pathways for antigen cross presentation

open access: yesSpringer Seminars in Immunopathology, 2004
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.

Beyond Just Peptide Antigens: The Complex World of Peptide-Based Cancer Vaccines [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Peptide-based cancer vaccines rely upon the strong activation of the adaptive immune response to elicit its effector function. They have shown to be highly specific and safe, but have yet to prove themselves as an efficacious treatment for cancer in the ...

Live Long and Prosper for Antigen Cross-Presentation [PDF]

open access: yesImmunity, 2015
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.

Understanding the biology of antigen cross-presentation for the design of vaccines against cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Antigen cross-presentation, the process in which exogenous antigens are presented on MHC class I molecules, is crucial for the generation of effector CD8+ T cell responses.

The role of XCR1 and its ligand XCL1 in antigen cross-presentation by murine and human dendritic cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Recently, the chemokine receptor XCR1 has been found to be exclusively expressed on a subset of DC known to be involved in antigen cross-presentation.

The purinergic receptor P2X7 as a modulator of viral vector-mediated antigen cross-presentation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
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 ...
