IL-7-Adjuvanted Vaginal Vaccine Elicits Strong Mucosal Immune Responses in Non-Human Primates

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mucosal immune responses are crucial in protecting against pathogens entering through mucosal surfaces. However, due to poor T-cell responsiveness upon mucosal antigenic stimulation, mucosal immunity remains difficult to obtain through vaccines and ...

Systemic bacterial infections affect dendritic cell development and function

open access: yesInternational Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2021
Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical in host defense against infection. DC depletion is an early event in the course of sepsis that may impair the host defense mechanisms.

Manufacturing Dendritic Cells for Immunotherapy: Monocyte Enrichment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dendritic cells play a key role in activation of the immune system as potent antigen-presenting cells. This pivotal position, along with the ability to generate dendritic cells from monocytes and ready uptake of antigen, makes them an intriguing vehicle ...

Interplay between SMAD2 and STAT5A is a critical determinant of IL-17A/IL-17F differential expression

open access: yesMolecular Biomedicine, 2021
Interleukins (IL)-17A and F are critical cytokines in anti-microbial immunity but also contribute to auto-immune pathologies. Recent evidence suggests that they may be differentially produced by T-helper (Th) cells, but the underlying mechanisms remain ...

Deciphering the combinatorial landscape of immunity

open access: yeseLife, 2020
From cellular activation to drug combinations, immunological responses are shaped by the action of multiple stimuli. Synergistic and antagonistic interactions between stimuli play major roles in shaping immune processes.

Regulation of the Migration of Distinct Dendritic Cell Subsets

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Dendritic cells (DCs), a class of antigen-presenting cells, are widely present in tissues and apparatuses of the body, and their ability to migrate is key for the initiation of immune activation and tolerogenic immune responses.

Differential gene expression in thrombomodulin (TM; CD141)(+) and TM(-) dendritic cell subsets. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Previously we have shown in a mouse model of bronchial asthma that thrombomodulin can convert immunogenic conventional dendritic cells into tolerogenic dendritic cells while inducing its own expression on their cell surface.

OVA-PEG-R848 nanocapsules stimulate neonatal conventional and plasmacytoid dendritic cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
Childhood mortality represents a major issue with 5. 3 million worldwide deaths of children under 5 years of age in 2019. Approximately half of those deaths can be attributed to easily preventable, infectious diseases.

Human Dendritic Cell Subset Isolation by Magnetic Bead Sorting: A Protocol to Efficiently Obtain Pure Populations

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2023
Dendritic cells have been investigated for cell-based immunotherapy for various applications. The low abundance of dendritic cells in blood hampers their clinical application, resulting in the use of monocyte-derived dendritic cells as an alternative ...

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells control dengue and Chikungunya virus infections via IRF7-regulated interferon responses

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Type I interferon (IFN-I) responses are critical for the control of RNA virus infections, however, many viruses, including Dengue (DENV) and Chikungunya (CHIKV) virus, do not directly activate plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), robust IFN-I producing ...
