Dendritic cells efficiently induce protective antiviral immunity.
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are essential for effective immunity to various viral infections. Because of the high speed of viral replication, control of viral infections imposes demanding functional and qualitative requirements on protective T-cell responses. Dendritic cells (DC) have been shown to efficiently acquire, transport, and present antigens to naive CTL in vitro and in vivo. In this...
متن کاملLentiviral transduction of dendritic cells confers protective antiviral immunity in vivo.
Control of a viral infection in vivo requires a rapid and efficient cytotoxic-T-lymphocyte response. We demonstrate that lentivirus-mediated introduction of antigen in dendritic cells confers a protective antiviral immunity in vivo in a lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus model. Therefore, lentiviral vectors may be excellent vaccine candidates for viral infections.
متن کاملDendritic cells pulsed with fungal RNA induce protective immunity to Candida albicans in hematopoietic transplantation.
Immature myeloid dendritic cells (DC) phagocytose yeasts and hyphae of the fungus Candida albicans and induce different Th cell responses to the fungus. Ingestion of yeasts activates DC for production of IL-12 and Th1 priming, while ingestion of hyphae induces IL-4 production and Th2 priming. In vivo, generation of antifungal protective immunity is induced upon injection of DC ex vivo pulsed wi...
متن کاملPeptide-pulsed dendritic cells induce antigen-specific CTL-mediated protective tumor immunity
Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are a critical component of the immune response to tumors. Tumor-derived peptide antigens targeted by CTLs are being defined for several human tumors and are potential immunogens for the induction of specific antitumor immunity. Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen-presenting cells (APCs) capable of priming CTL responses in vivo. Here we show that major histoco...
متن کاملMurine dendritic cells pulsed with an anti-idiotype antibody induce antigen-specific protective antitumor immunity.
In this study, using the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA)-expressing C15 murine colon carcinoma system in syngeneic C57BL/6 mice, we have evaluated the efficacy of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with the murine anti-idiotype antibody 3H1 as a tumor vaccine. Anti-idiotype 3H1 mimics a distinct and specific epitope of CEA and can generate anti-CEA immunity in mice, rabbits, monkey...
