Chimeric antigen receptors that trigger phagocytosis

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) are synthetic receptors that reprogram T cells to kill cancer. The success of CAR-T cell therapies highlights the promise of programmed immunity and suggests that applying CAR strategies to other immune cell lineages may

Research Progress of Dendritic Cell Surface Receptors and Targeting

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Dendritic cells are the only antigen-presenting cells capable of activating naive T cells in humans and mammals and are the most effective antigen-presenting cells.

EVOLUTION OF ANTIGEN BINDING RECEPTORS [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Immunology, 1999
▪ Abstract  This review addresses issues related to the evolution of the complex multigene families of antigen binding receptors that function in adaptive immunity. Advances in molecular genetic technology now permit the study of immunoglobulin (Ig) and T cell receptor (TCR) genes in many species that are not commonly studied yet represent critical ...

Expression of CysLT2 receptors in asthma lung, and their possible role in bronchoconstriction

open access: yesAllergology International, 2015
Background: The expression and functional role of CysLT2 receptors in asthma have not been clarified. In this study, we evaluated CysLT2 receptors expression, and effects of CysLT2-and CysLT1/2-receptor antagonists on antigen-induced bronchoconstriction ...

Designs of Antigen Structure and Composition for Improved Protein-Based Vaccine Efficacy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Today, vaccinologists have come to understand that the hallmark of any protective immune response is the antigen. However, it is not the whole antigen that dictates the immune response, but rather the various parts comprising the whole that are capable ...

Tolerogenic Immunotherapy: Targeting DC Surface Receptors to Induce Antigen-Specific Tolerance

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Dendritic cells (DCs) are well-established as major players in the regulation of immune responses. They either induce inflammatory or tolerogenic responses, depending on the DC-subtype and stimuli they receive from the local environment.

The second touch hypothesis: T cell activation, homing and polarization [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/2w7]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
The second touch hypothesis states that T cell activation, proliferation, induction of homing receptors and polarization are distinguishable and, at least in part, sequential. The second touch hypothesis maintains that full T cell polarization requires T

Generation of Chimeric Antigen Receptors against Tetraspanin 7

open access: yesCells, 2023
Adoptive transfer of antigen-specific regulatory T cells (Tregs) has shown promising results in the treatment of autoimmune diseases; however, the use of polyspecific Tregs has limited effects.
