The evolving biology of cross-presentation. [PDF]

open access: yesSemin Immunol, 2023
Cross-priming was first recognized in the context of in vivo cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses generated against minor histocompatibility antigens induced by immunization with lymphoid cells. Even though the basis for T cell antigen recognition was still largely unclear at that time, these early studies recognized the implication that such minor ...

Antigen Cross-Presentation by Macrophages [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The contribution of dendritic cell (DC) antigen cross-presentation to the activation of CD8+ T lymphocytes for immune defense against tumors, viruses, and intracellular pathogens has been recognized widely. Although originally thought to be an exclusive characteristic of DCs, recently also other immune cells, particularly macrophages, have been shown ...

Intracellular events regulating cross-presentation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
Cross-presentation plays a fundamental role in the induction of CD8-T cell immunity. However, although more than three decades have passed since its discovery, surprisingly little is known about the exact mechanisms involved. Here we give an overview of the components involved at different stages of this process.

Antigen Cross-Presentation of Immune Complexes [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2014
The ability of dendritic cells (DCs) to cross-present tumor antigens has long been a focus of interest to physicians, as well as basic scientists, that aim to establish efficient cell-based cancer immune therapy. A prerequisite for exploiting this pathway for therapeutic purposes is a better understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the induction ...

The many roads to cross-presentation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2005
Cross-presentation of extracellular antigens by MHC class I molecules is required for priming cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) at locations remote from the site of infection. Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain cross-presentation. One such mechanism involves the fusion of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) with the endosomal-phagosomal system ...

Photochemically-Mediated Inflammation and Cross-Presentation of Mycobacterium bovis BCG Proteins Stimulates Strong CD4 and CD8 T-Cell Responses in Mice

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Conventional vaccines are very efficient in the prevention of bacterial infections caused by extracellular pathogens due to effective stimulation of pathogen-specific antibodies.

Intracellular transport routes for MHC class I and their relevance for antigen cross-presentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Cross-presentation, in which exogenous antigens are presented via MHC I complexes, is involved both in the generation of anti-infectious and anti-tumoral cytotoxic CD8+ T cells and in the maintenance of immune tolerance.

The Macroautophagy Machinery in MHC Restricted Antigen Presentation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Autophagy-related (ATG) gene products regulate macroautophagy, LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) and LC3-dependent extracellular vesicle loading and secretion (LDELS).

Sec61 in antigen cross-presentation

open access: yesOncotarget, 2015
Upon recognition of antigens in the peripheral tissue, dendritic cells (DCs) migrate toward the draining lymph node to present internalized and processed antigens on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules to T cells. In a process termed cross-presentation, antigen-derived peptides are presented on MHC I molecules to cytotoxic T cells.
