Autophagy in dendritic cells [PDF]

open access: yesCellular & Molecular Immunology, 2018
Autophagy and immunity share the property of being auto-protective for the organism. Autophagy is an important degradation pathway that buffers nutrient deprivation by recycling macromolecules in organisms from yeast to man. Perturbations in autophagy are associated with inflammation and cancer development.

Junctional adhesion molecule-A is dispensable for myeloid cell recruitment and diversification in the tumor microenvironment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Junctional adhesion molecule-A (JAM-A), expressed on the surface of myeloid cells, is required for extravasation at sites of inflammation and may also modulate myeloid cell activation.

From secretome analysis to immunology: chitosan induces major alterations in the activation of dendritic cells via a TLR4-dependent mechanism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Dendritic cells are known to be activated by a wide range of microbial products, leading to cytokine production and increased levels of membrane markers such as major histocompatibility complex class II molecules.

Monocytes Elicit a Neutrophil-Independent Th1/Th17 Response Upon Immunization With a Mincle-Dependent Glycolipid Adjuvant

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Successful subunit vaccination with recombinant proteins requires adjuvants. The glycolipid trehalose-dibehenate (TDB), a synthetic analog of the mycobacterial cord factor, potently induces Th1 and Th17 immune responses and is a candidate adjuvant for ...

Tetanic Stimulation Leads to Increased Accumulation of Ca^(2+)/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase II via Dendritic Protein Synthesis in Hippocampal Neurons [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
mRNA for the ɑ-subunit of CaMKII is abundant in dendrites of neurons in the forebrain (Steward, 1997). Here we show that tetanic stimulation of the Schaffer collateral pathway causes an increase in the concentration of ɑ-CaMKII in the dendrites of ...

Measurement of Dipeptidylpeptidase Activity in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Dipeptidylpeptidases (DPPs) are serine proteases, which cleave small proteins and peptides possessing a proline or an alanine in the second position of their N-terminus.

Revving up dendritic cells while braking PD-L1 to jump-start the cancer-immunity cycle motor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Although it is successful for some, most melanoma patients are refractory to T cell checkpoint inhibition. In this issue of Immunity, Merad and colleagues (2016) describe a dendritic-cell-based strategy to heighten the efficacy of therapeutic anti-PD-L1 ...

Exact solutions to cable equations in branching neurons with tapering dendrites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Neurons are biological cells with uniquely complex dendritic morphologies that are not present in other cell types. Electrical signals in a neuron with branching dendrites can be studied by cable theory which provides a general mathematical modelling ...

Defining dendritic cells

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Immunology, 2015
Dendritic cells (DCs) are versatile controllers of the immune system, best known for their potent ability to initiate adaptive immunity. Traditionally, DCs have been defined on the basis of cell morphology, expression of specific markers and select functional attributes such as the ability to migrate to T cell areas of secondary lymphoid organs and ...
