Dendritic Cells in Transplant Tolerance
Dendritic cells (DCs) are a heterogeneous family of professional APCs involved in priming adaptive immune responses. Donor DCs (direct pathway of allorecognition) and recipient DCs presenting processed donor major histocompatibility complex (MHC) as peptides (indirect pathway of allorecognition) participate actively in graft rejection by stimulating recipient T cell responses following organ tr...
متن کاملDendritic cells: inciting and inhibiting autoimmunity.
Dendritic cells are considered the most influential antigen presenting cells in the body because of their unique role in initiating immunity against threatening antigens. Recent studies addressing the consequences of self-antigen presentation by dendritic cells revealed the unexpected ability of these antigen presenting cells to inhibit T cell-mediated autoimmune diseases. The specific mechanis...
متن کاملInhibiting autophagy increases epirubicin's cytotoxicity in breast cancer cells
Chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and endocrinotherapy are documented to induce autophagy among breast cancer cells, but the role of autophagy in this disease has been attributed as cytoprotective as well as tumor-suppressing. Thus we studied MDA-MB-231 and SK-BR-3 breast cancer cell lines treated with epirubicin (EPI) to assess autophagy and apoptosis. We found out that EPI induced apoptosis and aut...
متن کاملCross-presentation of antigens by dendritic cells: role of autophagy
Dendritic cells (DCs) are a heterogeneous population of antigen presenting cells(APCs) that initiate and orient immune responses. They sense the pathogens and pathogen-derived antigenic molecules via pattern recognition receptors(PRRs). They process and present extracellular antigens in the context of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules to CD4 + T helper cells and intracel...
متن کاملAutophagy-dependent viral recognition by plasmacytoid dendritic cells.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) detect viruses in the acidified endosomes by means of Toll-like receptors (TLRs). Yet, pDC responses to certain single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses occur only after live viral infection. We present evidence here that the recognition of such viruses by TLR7 requires transport of cytosolic viral replication intermediates into the lysosome by the process of auto...
