cDC1s Promote Atherosclerosis via Local Immunity and Are Targetable for Therapy
BACKGROUND: Atherosclerosis is characterized by immune cell accumulation in the arterial wall and adaptive CD4 + T helper 1 immunity contributes to atherosclerosis development. However, how conventional dendritic cells (DCs) orchestrate this adaptive response remains controversial ...

The cDC1 subset of classical dendritic cells is specialized for priming CD8 T cell responses through the process of cross-presentation. The molecular mechanisms of cross-presentation remain incompletely understood because of limited biochemical analysis ...

Genetic analysis of primary lung interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas
Abstract Interdigitating dendritic cell sarcomas (IDCSs) are rare tumors that commonly arise in the hematopoietic system and rarely outside. The genetic drivers of IDCS carcinogenesis are unknown; therefore, therapeutic options are limited. We investigated somatic gene mutations and copy‐number alterations (CNAs) in nine IDCSs arising in the lung by ...

Vaccination against neoantigens induced in cross-priming cDC1 in vivo
AbstractThe conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1) play a pivotal role in protective immunity against pathogens and cancer. However, their low frequency in the blood and tissues limits their use in immune therapy. We have recently described a method to vaccinate against neoantigens that are induced in tumor cells by targeted delivery of a TAP siRNA

Infection control in the brain and the eye
Abstract The Central Nervous System (CNS), comprising the brain and the eye, is considered to have a ‘privileged’ mechanism for dealing with immunological challenge (immune privilege, IP). CNS IP has been revealed through experiments using foreign protein antigens and cell and tissue alloantigens (grafts), but evidence for a role for IP in modulating ...

Chemotherapy combined with nivolumab reshapes the gastric cancer tumor microenvironment (TME) and is accompanied by an enrichment of reduced cytotoxicity NK (RC‐NK) cells. Rather than acting as classical cytotoxic effectors, these RC‐NK cells appear to shape the TME by promoting an immunostimulatory circuit that engages adaptive immunity.

Development and migration of cDC1 in the spleen
Precursor of dendritic cells (preDCs) develop in the bone marrow and continuously seed in tissues where preDCs further differentiate and migrate to and within secondary lymphoid organs to orchestrate adaptive immunity. Where preDCs seed the splenic red pulp, locally develop into type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) and migrate to the white pulp ...

This research investigates the regulatory role of the transcription factor PU.1 in type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1) and its therapeutic potential of modulating the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-κB) cells signaling pathway in non-small cell lung ...

Antigen presentation requirements for effective cDC1-based cancer immunotherapy
Abstract Type 1 conventional dendritic cells (cDC1s) are important for generating and sustaining antitumor immunity. Accordingly, the abundance of cDC1s in human tumors correlates with improved outcomes in cancer. Capitalizing on this role, we previously demonstrated that vaccination with in vitro
