In vivo antigen presentation

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2004
Monoclonal antibodies specific for defined peptide-MHC complexes are now being used to physically detect T-cell receptor ligands. These reagents have resulted in the identification of the cells that present antigen in lymphoid and non-lymphoid tissues after various forms of antigen administration.

Antigen presentation, antigen-presenting cells and antigen processing

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1988
To summarize, during the period under review there have been considerable advances in our understanding of how antigen is associated with MHC on the surface of a presenting cell. Basic rules which govern this association have been confirmed as including both the nature and the configuration of the antigen.

CNS antigen presentation

Trends in Neurosciences, 1995
Presentation of antigens for the CNS follows the same general rules as for other tissues. However, the presence of special CNS cells with immune functions plus the blood-brain barrier (BBB) suggests that differences in the way that the immune system functions in the CNS might help to explain why some autoimmune diseases are unique to the CNS ...

Antigen presenting cells

Immunologic Research, 1989
A great deal has been learned over the past few years regarding the molecular biology of antigen presentation. These discoveries have been possible in part because of acquisition of protein sequencing data regarding class I and class II MHC molecules and in part because of X-ray crystallographic analysis of the three-dimensional structures of these ...

Mechanisms of Antigen Presentation

cclm, 1999
AbstractT-lymphocytes recognize short peptide antigens bound stably to polymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-encoded glycoproteins expressed on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APC). Two general pathways have evolved to generate peptide-MHC complexes.

Antigen Presentation by Liposomes

1985
Abstract T cells respond to foreign antigen only when the latter is presented on the surface of an antigen-presenting cell (APC) together with a molecule encoded in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). The nature of this antigen presentation is poorly understood. The difficulty of demonstrating soluble antigen serologically on the surface of APC,

Antigen Presentation in the Lung

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2000
Abstract Studies from our laboratory and elsewhere have implicated populations of dendritic cells in lung and airway tissues as key regulators of both qualitative and quantitative aspects of T cell responses to local antigenic challenge.

Antigen presenting cells and mechanisms of antigen presentation.

Critical reviews in immunology, 1985
In this review we will examine the characteristics of the various cell types which have been shown to present antigens to helper and proliferating T cells and explore what is known about the requirements for antigen presentation by these cells. Cell types to be discussed include mononuclear phagocytes from a variety of tissues as well as nonphagocytic ...

Presentation of tumor antigens.

Seminars in hematology, 1999
Dendritic cells, with their extraordinary capacity for initiating primary and secondary T-lymphocyte responses, may be pivotal in the development of immunotherapeutic strategies for multiple myeloma. Although host lymphocytes are able to recognize tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), many tumors are able to avoid dendritic cell-mediated immune ...

Antigen processing and presentation

2019
Dendritic cells are at the center of immune responses. They are defined by their ability to sense the environment, take up and process antigen, migrate to secondary lymphoid organs, where they present antigens to the adaptive immune system. In particular, they present lipids and proteins from pathogens, which they encountered in peripheral tissues, to ...
