The dendritic cell side of the immunological synapse
Immune responses are initiated by the interactions between antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as dendritic cells (DCs), with responder cells, such as T cells, via a tight cellular contact interface called the immunological synapse.

CD28 and chemokine receptors: Signalling amplifiers at the immunological synapse [PDF]
T cells are master regulators of the immune response tuning, among others, B cells, macrophages and NK cells. To exert their functions requiring high sensibility and specificity, T cells need to integrate different stimuli from the surrounding ...

HIV-1 Virological Synapse is not Simply a Copycat of the Immunological Synapse
The virological synapse (VS) is a tight adhesive junction between an HIV-infected cell and an uninfected target cell, across which virus can be efficiently transferred from cell to cell in the absence of cell-cell fusion.

Kv1.3 palmitoylation regulates spatial distribution and channel removal from the immunological synapse [PDF]
Kv1.3 is the main voltage-gated potassium channel in T cells. At the immunological synapse (IS), it sustains Ca2⁺ signaling and facilitates T cell activation.

Comparative anatomy of phagocytic and immunological synapses [PDF]
The generation of phagocytic cups and immunological synapses are crucial events of the innate and adaptive immune responses, respectively. They are triggered by distinct immune receptors and performed by different cell types.

Despite disorganized synapse structure, Th2 cells maintain directional delivery of CD40L to antigen-presenting B cells. [PDF]
Upon recognition of peptide displayed on MHC molecules, Th1 and Th2 cells form distinct immunological synapse structures. Th1 cells have a bull's eye synapse structure with TCR/ MHC-peptide interactions occurring central to a ring of adhesion molecules ...

Cytotoxic immunological synapses [PDF]
Summary: One of the most fundamental activities of the adaptive immune system is to kill infected cells and tumor cells. Two distinct pathways mediate this process, both of which are facilitated by a cytotoxic immunological synapse. While traditionally thought of as innate immune cells, natural killer (NK) cells are now appreciated to have the ...

Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphoid cells, which play key roles in elimination of virally infected and malignant cells. The balance between activating and inhibitory signals derived from NK surface receptors govern the NK cell immune response ...
