The Antigen Presenting Cells Instruct Plasma Cell Differentiation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
The professional antigen presenting cells (APCs), including many subsets of dendritic cells and macrophages, not only mediate prompt but nonspecific response against microbes, but also bridge the antigen-specific adaptive immune response through antigen ...

Functional characterization of reappearing B cells after anti-CD20 treatment of CNS autoimmune disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The anti-CD20 antibody ocrelizumab, approved for treatment of multiple sclerosis, leads to rapid elimination of B cells from the blood. The extent of B cell depletion and kinetics of their recovery in different immune compartments is largely unknown ...

Recent Advances in Nanovaccines Using Biomimetic Immunomodulatory Materials

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2019
The development of vaccines plays a vital role in the effective control of several fatal diseases. However, effective prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines have yet to be developed for completely curing deadly diseases, such as cancer, malaria, HIV, and ...

Role of B cells as antigen presenting cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
B cells have been long studied for their role and function in the humoral immune system. Apart from generating antibodies and an antibody-mediated memory response against pathogens, B cells are also capable of generating cell-mediated immunity.

Immunogenicity of targeted lentivectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To increase the safety and possibly efficacy of HIV-1 derived lentivectors (LVs) as an anti-cancer vaccine, we recently developed the Nanobody (Nb) display technology to target LVs to antigen presenting cells (APCs).

Enhancement of the antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte-inducing ability in the PMDC11 leukemic plasmacytoid dendritic cell line via lentiviral vector-mediated transduction of the caTLR4 gene. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of the present study was to enhance the efficiency of leukemia immunotherapy by increasing the antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte-inducing ability of leukemia cells. The leukemic plasmacytoid dendritic cell line PMDC05 containing the HLA-A02/

Human dendritic cell functional specialization in steady state and inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
Dendritic cells (DC) represent a heterogeneous population of antigen-presenting cells that are crucial in initiating and shaping immune responses. Although all DC are capable of antigen uptake, processing and presentation to T cells, DC subtypes differ ...

Information Fusion for Anomaly Detection with the Dendritic Cell Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dendritic cells are antigen presenting cells that provide a vital link between the innate and adaptive immune system, providing the initial detection of pathogenic invaders.
