Tolerogenic dendritic cell-based immunotherapy
Dendritic cells (DC) are established T-cell immunity inducers [1], and are also being viewed increasingly as T-cell tolerance mediators [2, 3]. Normally, DCs regulate immune homeostasis by maintaining the balance between T cell immunity and tolerance. Thus far, DC-based immunotherapy has been primarily a consideration in the field of cancer therapy (for the treatment of cancers using fully matu...
متن کاملTolerogenic Dendritic Cells in Solid Organ Transplantation: Where Do We Stand?
Over the past century, solid organ transplantation has been improved both at a surgical and postoperative level. However, despite the improvement in efficiency, safety, and survival, we are still far from obtaining full acceptance of all kinds of allograft in the absence of concomitant treatments. Today, transplanted patients are treated with immunosuppressive drugs (IS) to minimize immunologic...
متن کاملTolerogenic Dendritic Cells on Transplantation: Immunotherapy Based on Second Signal Blockage
Dendritic cells (DCs), the most important professional antigen-presenting cells (APC), play crucial role in both immunity and tolerance. It is well known that DCs are able to mount immune responses against foreign antigens and simultaneously tolerate self-antigens. Since DCs can be modulated depending on the surrounding microenvironment, they can act as a bridge between innate and adaptive immu...
متن کاملDendritic Cells and Their Role in Cancer Immunotherapy
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen presenting cells with unique capability to take up and process antigens in the peripheral blood and tissues. They subsequently migrate to draining lymph nodes where they present these antigens and stimulate naive T lympho-cytes. During their life cycle, DCs go through two maturation stages and are referred to as immature and mature cells, respectively. While im...
متن کاملCell therapy using tolerogenic dendritic cells in transplantation
Organ transplantation is the main alternative to the loss of vital organ function from various diseases. However, to avoid graft rejection, transplant patients are treated with immunosuppressive drugs that have adverse side effects. A new emerging approach to reduce the administration of immunosuppressive drugs is to co-treat patients with cell therapy using regulatory cells. In our laboratory,...
