Activated Brain Endothelial Cells Cross-Present Malaria Antigen. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2015
In the murine model of cerebral malaria caused by P. berghei ANKA (PbA), parasite-specific CD8+ T cells directly induce pathology and have long been hypothesized to kill brain endothelial cells that have internalized PbA antigen.

Antigen Presentation in the Lung

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The lungs are constantly exposed to environmental and infectious agents such as dust, viruses, fungi, and bacteria that invade the lungs upon breathing. The lungs are equipped with an immune defense mechanism that involves a wide variety of immunological

Molecular and cell-biological mechanisms of antigen cross-presentation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Cross-priming serves to activate cytotoxic T lymphocytes for immune defense against viruses and tumors and plays an important role in vaccinations. Only certain dendritic cell (DC) subsets can cross-present. Several cell surface markers have been described that more or less specifically and sensitively characterize these subsets.

Direct antigen presentation is the canonical pathway of cytomegalovirus CD8 T-cell priming regulated by balanced immune evasion ensuring a strong antiviral response

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
CD8 T cells are important antiviral effectors in the adaptive immune response to cytomegaloviruses (CMV). Naïve CD8 T cells can be primed by professional antigen-presenting cells (pAPCs) alternatively by “direct antigen presentation” or “antigen cross ...

Application of Antigen Cross-Presentation Research into Patient Care [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Dendritic cell (DC)-based cellular immunotherapy is being explored as a treatment modality for several malignancies, for viral diseases and auto-immune disorders. More than four decades of pre-clinical research on DC biology has cemented a strong foundation for clinical application of DC-based clinical trials, which already have been performed since ...
