Modification of anti-tumor immunity by tolerogenic dendritic cells
Immunosuppressive functions of glucocorticoids (GC) can be mediated via various mechanisms, including the modulation of dendritic cells (DC). Our study investigates the effects of tolerogenic GC-treated DCs on NK and T cell anti-tumor responses in OT-1 ...

Tissue Resident Memory Cells: Friend or Foe?
Tissue‐resident memory T cells (TRM cells) are specialised immune cells in barrier tissues like the lungs, skin and gut, providing rapid host defence and tumour surveillance. Their retention and differentiation are regulated by molecules such as CD69, CD103 and TGF‐β. Dysregulation of TRM cells can lead to chronic activation, driving conditions such as

Far‐UVC (200–235 nm) has emerged as a safe and effective indoor disinfection tool, but effects on skin immunomodulation remain unclear. This study demonstrates that 222 nm far‐UVC converts trans‐urocanic acid (UCA) to its biologically active cis isomer at levels comparable with solar radiation. In keratinocytes, far‐UVC alone caused modest increases in

Tumor antigen cross-presentation and the dendritic cell: Where it all begins?
Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that are critical for the generation of effective cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses; however, their function and phenotype are often defective or altered in tumor-bearing hosts ...

In vitro generation of human tolerogenic monocyte-derived dendritic cells [PDF]
Human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDC) are commonly used as a research tool to investigate interactions between antigen-presenting cells and T cells.

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease
ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

Dendritic cells (DCs) are pivotal in balancing immunity and tolerance in allergic asthma. This study reveals that both house dust mite (HDM) and mannose induce a potent tolerogenic phenotype in bone marrow derived DCs (BMDCs).

Thymus and Leishmania at the Crossroads: Autoimmunity and Cancer
Conceptual ‘Crossroads Model’ linking Leishmania, thymic infection and immune dysregulation: an integrative model is proposed in which Leishmania infection disrupts thymic architecture and stromal–thymocyte interactions. These alterations converge to promote defective tolerance, increased autoimmune risk and a microenvironment permissive to malignant ...

T Cell Exhaustion in Cancer Immunotherapy: Heterogeneity, Mechanisms, and Therapeutic Opportunities
T cell exhaustion limits immunotherapy efficacy. This article delineates its progression from stem‐like to terminally exhausted states, governed by persistent antigen, transcription factors, epigenetics, and metabolism. It maps the exhaustion landscape in the TME and proposes integrated reversal strategies, providing a translational roadmap to overcome
