Chromatin Landscape Underpinning Human Dendritic Cell Heterogeneity
Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Human dendritic cells (DCs) comprise subsets with distinct phenotypic and functional characteristics, but the transcriptional programs that dictate their identity remain elusive.

Computational convergence of the path integral for real dendritic morphologies [PDF]
, 2012 Neurons are characterised by a morphological structure unique amongst biological cells, the core of which is the dendritic tree. The vast number of dendritic geometries, combined with heterogeneous properties of the cell membrane, continue to challenge ...

Efferocytosis promotes suppressive effects on dendritic cells through prostaglandin E2 production in the context of autoimmunity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 INTRODUCTION: Efferocytosis is a crucial process by which apoptotic cells are cleared by phagocytes, maintaining immune tolerance to self in the absence of inflammation.

Bystander hyperactivation of preimmune CD8+ T cells in chronic HCV patients
eLife, 2015 Chronic infection perturbs immune homeostasis. While prior studies have reported dysregulation of effector and memory cells, little is known about the effects on naïve T cell populations. We performed a cross-sectional study of chronic hepatitis C (cHCV)

Antigen presenting capacity of murine splenic myeloid cells [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: The spleen is an important site for hematopoiesis. It supports development of myeloid cells from bone marrow-derived precursors entering from blood. Myeloid subsets in spleen are not well characterised although dendritic cell (DC) subsets are

The clinical application of cancer immunotherapy based on naturally circulating dendritic cells
Journal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer, 2019 Dendritic cells (DCs) can initiate and direct adaptive immune responses. This ability is exploitable in DC vaccination strategies, in which DCs are educated ex vivo to present tumor antigens and are administered into the patient with the aim to induce a ...

A generic polymer-protein ligation strategy for vaccine delivery [PDF]
, 2016 Although the field of cancer immunotherapy is intensively investigated, there is still a need for generic strategies that allow easy, mild and efficient formulation of vaccine antigens.

Growth of donor-derived dendritic cells from the bone marrow of murine liver auograft recipients in response to granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor [PDF]
, 1995 Allografts of the liver, which has a comparatively heavy leukocyte content compared with other vascularized organs, are accepted permanently across major histocompatibility complex barriers in many murine strain combinations without immunosuppressive ...

Human plasmacytoid dendritic cells and cutaneous melanoma [PDF]
, 2020 The prognosis of metastatic melanoma (MM) patients has remained poor for a long time. However, the recent introduction of effective target therapies (BRAF and MEK inhibitors for BRAFV600-mutated MM) and immunotherapies (anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1) has ...

The role of CD103+ Dendritic cells in the intestinal mucosal immune system.
Frontiers in Immunology, 2011 While dendritic cells (DC) are central to the induction and regulation of adaptive immunity, these cells are very heterogenous and specific subsets can be characterized based on the expression of cell surface markers and functional properties. Intestinal
