Interferon-gamma-activated macrophages infected with Burkholderia cenocepacia process and present bacterial antigens to T-cells by class I and II major histocompatibility complex molecules

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2020
Burkholderia cenocepacia is an emerging opportunistic pathogen for people with cystic fibrosis and chronic granulomatous disease. Intracellular survival in macrophages within a membrane-bound vacuole (BcCV) that delays acidification and maturation into ...

Infectious Diseases and Immunity: Special Reference to Major Histocompatibility Complex

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 1997
Human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) are an inherent system of alloantigens, which are the products of genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC).

A rationally designed cancer vaccine based on NIR-II fluorescence image-guided light-triggered remote control of antigen cross-presentation and autophagy

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2023
Cancer vaccines represent a promising immunotherapeutic treatment modality. The promotion of cross-presentation of extracellular tumor-associated antigens on the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules and dendritic cell maturation at ...

IL-6-mediated MHC class II induction on RIN-5AH insulinoma cells by IFN-γ occurs via the G-protein pathway

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, 1995
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigen expression has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune type 1 diabetes. In this study we examined the role of various cytoldnes that may induce MHC class II surface antigen expression ...

Antigen processing for MHC class II presentation via autophagy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
T cells recognize proteolytic fragments of antigens that are presented to them on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. MHC class I molecules present primarily products of proteasomal proteolysis to CD8+ T cells, while MHC class II molecules ...

EXPRESSION OF A FUNCTIONAL CHIMERIC lg-MHC CLASS II PROTEIN [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
composed of the a- and ß-chains of the MHC class I1 I-E molecule fused to antibody V regions derived from anti-human CD4 mAb MT310. Expression vectors were constructed containing the functional, rearranged gene segments coding for the V region domains of

Is There any Greater Possibility in Finding HLA-identical Unrelated Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donors among Thalassemia Families for Transplantation of Thalassemia Patients? [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2004
Background: Thalassemia is probably the most common single gene disorder causing a major public health problem in the world. Currently, allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative therapy for thalassemia.

A lentiviral vector encoding fusion of light invariant chain and mycobacterial antigens induces protective CD4+ T cell immunity

open access: yesCell Reports, 2022
Summary: Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are highly efficient at inducing CD8+ T cell responses. However, LV-encoded antigens are processed inside the cytosol of antigen-presenting cells, which does not directly communicate with the endosomal major ...

Antigen Presentation in the Gut

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Gastroenterology, 1990
The induction of T cell responses requires recognition of antigens in association with class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) proteins and specialized antigen-presenting cells.

E5 protein of human papillomavirus type 16 selectively downregulates surface HLA class I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Papillomaviruses have evolved mechanisms that result in escape from host immune surveillance. The E5 protein is expressed early in papillomavirus infection in the deep layers of the infected epithelium.
