Monocytes Join the Dendritic Cell Family
Dendritic cells are professional antigen-presenting cells that mediate immunity and tolerance. Cheong et al. (2010) uncover a new route for dendritic cell production in vivo. They show that in response to infection by gram-negative bacteria, monocytes are recruited to the lymph node where they rapidly differentiate into dendritic cells that present antigens to T cells.
متن کاملDendritic Cell Immunotherapy, the Next Step in Cancer Treatment
Cancer immunotherapy has gained a lot of interest over the past few years due to the success of immune checkpoint inhibitors in treating cancer (1, 2). Immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as monoclonal antibodies against cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) and programmed death 1 (PD-1), have been shown to increase survival of patients with advanced cancers (1, 2). These in...

متن کاملCharacterization of porcine dendritic cell response to Streptococcus suis
Streptococcus suis is a major swine pathogen and important zoonotic agent causing mainly septicemia and meningitis. However, the mechanisms involved in host innate and adaptive immune responses toward S. suis as well as the mechanisms used by S. suis to subvert these responses are unknown. Here, and for the first time, the ability of S. suis to interact with bone marrow-derived swine dendritic ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Candida Albicans Cell Wall Protein Fraction on Dendritic Cell Maturation
Back ground: Candida albicans is a member of the normal human microflora. C. albicans cell wall is composed of several protein and carbohydrate components which have been shown to play a crucial role in C. albicans interaction with the host immune system. Major components of C. albican cell wall are carbohydrates such as mannans, β glucans and chitins, and proteins that partially modulate the h...
