Antigen processing and presentation
2019Dendritic 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 ...

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 ...

Mechanisms of Antigen Presentation
cclm, 1999AbstractT-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
1985Abstract 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 processing and presentation
Immunology Letters, 1990An overview of the various aspects of antigen degradation and presentation is given with special emphasis on the possible occurrence of variation in the enzymatic machinery present in different cells or individuals. Different procedures for epitope mapping are also presented as well as the characterization of universal epitopes in humans.

Antigen presenting cells and mechanisms of antigen presentation.
Critical reviews in immunology, 1985In 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 ...

Antigen Presentation in the Lung
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2000Studies 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. Under steady state conditions, they are specialized for uptake of antigen, and require additional maturation signals for full

This paper reviews some of the cellular events involved in the immune recognition of foreign proteins. The recognition of an antigen by T lymphocytes is essential for its effective elimination by the host. T lymphocytes of the CD4 or CD8 subset recognize antigen but only after the antigen is handled by antigen-handling cells (antigen-presenting cells).
