Antigen targeting to dendritic cells elicits long-lived T cell help for antibody responses
Resistance to several prevalent infectious diseases requires both cellular and humoral immune responses. T cell immunity is initiated by mature dendritic cells (DCs) in lymphoid organs, whereas humoral responses to most antigens require further collaboration between primed, antigen-specific helper T cells and naive or memory B cells. To determine whether antigens delivered to DCs in lymphoid or...
متن کاملAntigen-independent targeting of long-lived CD4+ cytolytic T effector cells to lesions of atherosclerosis.
Acute coronary syndromes, most often characterized by fissuring or rupture of coronary lesions, are responsible for the majority of clinical manifestations of atherosclerosis.1–3 Studies of human atherosclerotic plaques after acute events have revealed that lesions that tend to rupture are rich in inflammatory cells and have a thin fibrous cap, implicating the inflammatory response as a key reg...
متن کاملTargeted antigen delivery to dendritic cells elicits robust antiviral T cell-mediated immunity in the liver
Hepatotropic viruses such as hepatitis C virus cause life-threatening chronic liver infections in millions of people worldwide. Targeted in vivo antigen-delivery to cross-presenting dendritic cells (DCs) has proven to be extraordinarily efficient in stimulating antigen-specific T cell responses. To determine whether this approach would as well be suitable to induce local antiviral effector T ce...
متن کاملTargeting antigen to bone marrow stromal cell-2 expressed by conventional and plasmacytoid dendritic cells elicits efficient antigen presentation.
Bone marrow stromal cell-2 (BST-2) has major roles in viral tethering and modulation of interferon production. Here we investigate BST-2 as a receptor for the delivery of antigen to dendritic cells (DCs). We show that BST-2 is expressed by a panel of mouse and human DC subsets, particularly under inflammatory conditions. The outcome of delivering antigen to BST-2 expressed by steady state and a...
متن کاملCD4 T cell help is required for primary CD8 T cell responses to vesicular antigen delivered to dendritic cells in vivo.
Insight into the mechanisms by which dendritic cells (DC) present exogenous antigen to T cells is of major importance in the design of vaccines. We examined the effectiveness of free antigen as well as antigen with lipopolysaccharide, emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant, and antigen encapsulated in liposomes in activating adoptively transferred antigen-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells. When co...
