Cross-presentation of cell-associated antigens by MHC class I in dendritic cell subsets

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Dendritic cells have the unique ability to pick up dead cells carrying antigens in tissue and migrate to the lymph nodes where they can cross-present cell-associated antigens by MHC class I to CD8+ T cells. There is strong in vivo evidence that the mouse

Binding of the von Willebrand Factor A Domain of Capillary Morphogenesis Protein 2 to Anthrax Protective Antigen Vaccine Reduces Immunogenicity in Mice

open access: yesmSphere, 2020
Protective antigen (PA) is a component of anthrax toxin that can elicit toxin-neutralizing antibody responses. PA is also the major antigen in the current vaccine to prevent anthrax, but stability problems with recombinant proteins have complicated the ...

Improving MHC class I antigen-processing predictions using representation learning and cleavage site-specific kernels

open access: yesCell Reports: Methods, 2022
Summary: In this work, we propose a new deep-learning model, MHCrank, to predict the probability that a peptide will be processed for presentation by MHC class I molecules.

Toward a network model of MHC class II-restricted antigen processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
The standard model of Major Histocompatibility Complex class II (MHCII)-restricted antigen processing depicts a straightforward, linear pathway: Internalized antigens are converted into peptides that load in a chaperone dependent manner onto nascent ...

Microsomal membranes from antigen presenting cells present antigenic peptides to T cells: a novel approach in vaccine development. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
PhDThe study of the immune system has provided insight in the mechanism of protection induced by vaccination; primarily that most clinically protective vaccines are potent in generating neutralizing antibody responses.

Selection, transmission, and reversion of an antigen-processing cytotoxic T-lymphocyte escape mutation in Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Numerous studies now support that human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) evolution is influenced by immune selection pressure, with population studies showing an association between specific HLA alleles and mutations within defined cytotoxic T ...

Localisation of the Ki-67 antigen within the nucleolus: Evidence for a fibrillarin-deficient region of the dense fibrillar component [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The Ki-67 antigen is detected in proliferating cells in all phases of the cell division cycle. Throughout most of interphase, the Ki-67 antigen is localised within the nucleolus.

Siglec Receptors Modulate Dendritic Cell Activation and Antigen Presentation to T Cells in Cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Interactions between sialylated glycans and sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec) receptors have been recently described as potential new immune checkpoint that can be targeted to improve anticancer immunity.

Antigen - presentation by vascular endothelium : its role for CTL - mediated vascular injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: EC express and present MHC class I restricted peptide antigens and due to the exposed position may be targeted by antigen-specific CTL. We wished to explore the type of vascular injury that is mediated by peptidespecific CTL in vivo when EC ...

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
