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 ...

Into the Intracellular Logistics of Cross-Presentation [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
The induction of cytotoxic CD8(+) T cell responses requires the presentation of antigenic peptides by MHC class I molecules (MHC I). MHC I usually present peptides derived from endogenous proteins. However, some subtypes of dendritic cells have developed the ability to efficiently present peptides derived from exogenous antigens on MHC I via a process ...

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 ...

Role of Immunoproteasomes in Cross-Presentation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2006
Abstract The evidence that proteasomes are involved in the processing of cross-presented proteins is indirect and based on the in vitro use of proteasome inhibitors. It remains, therefore, unclear whether cross-presentation of MHC class I peptide epitopes can occur entirely within phagolysosomes or whether it requires proteasome ...

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 ...

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.

Heat Shock Proteins 90 kDa: Immunomodulators and Adjuvants in Vaccine Design Against Infectious Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Heat shock proteins 90 kDa (Hsp90s) were originally identified as stress-responsive proteins and described to participate in several homeostatic processes.

Divergent Peptide Presentations of HLA-A*30 Alleles Revealed by Structures With Pathogen Peptides

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles have a high degree of polymorphism, which determines their peptide-binding motifs and subsequent T-cell receptor recognition.
