Tumor expression of the lymphangiogenic factor VEGF-C is correlated with metastasis and poor prognosis, and although VEGF-C enhances transport to the draining lymph node (dLN) and antigen exposure to the adaptive immune system, its role in tumor immunity r ...
Vaccines aiming to activate cytotoxic T cells require cross-presentation of exogenous antigen by antigen-presenting cells (APCs). We recently developed a synthetic nanoparticle vaccine platform that targets lymph node-resident dendritic cells (DCs), capabl ...
Interaction of lymphotoxin alpha(1)beta(2) (LTalpha(1)beta(2)) with its receptor is key for the generation and maintenance of secondary lymphoid organ microstructure. We used mice conditionally deficient for LTbeta on different lymphocyte subsets to determ ...
The role of interferon-gamma in autoimmune diabetes was assessed by breeding a null mutation of the interferon-gamma receptor of chain into the nonobese diabetic mouse strain, as well as into a simplified T cell receptor transgenic model of diabetes. In co ...
Antigen-presenting dendritic cells often acquire foreign antigens in peripheral tissues such as the skin. Optimal encounter with naive T cells for the presentation of these antigens requires that the dendritic cells migrate to draining lymph nodes through ...
Angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity was identified in milk proteins fermented with Lactobacillus (Lb.) helveticus NCC 2765 (Nestle Culture Collection, Vers-chez-les-Blanc, Switzerland). Hydrolyzing sodium caseinate for 1 and 2 h inhib ...
To evaluate the clinical and immunologic outcomes of DC (dendritic cell) vaccine with interleukin (IL)-2 and IFN-alpha 2a in metastatic renal cell carcinoma patients. ...
Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase (CyaA) toxoid is a powerful nonreplicative immunization vector targeting dendritic cells, which has already been used successfully in prophylactic and therapeutic vaccination in various preclinical animal models. Here ...
CD8+ memory T cells have recently been recognized as playing a key role in natural immunity against unrelated viral infections, a phenomenon referred to as "heterologous antiviral immunity." We now provide data that the cellular immunological interactions ...
Immunostimulatory RNA (isRNA) depending on sequence and structure can function as a ligand for Toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 and TLR8. Here we show that isRNA induces high levels of bioactive interleukin-12 in purified human monocytes, whereas purified natura ...
