Regulation of tumor-associated high-endothelial venules by dendritic cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accumulating evidence suggests that high-endothelial venules (HEVs) represent major gateways for the infiltration of lymphocytes within neoplastic lesions. However, the origin of these vessels in human neoplasms remains elusive. We have recently discovered a link between lymphotoxin β-producing dendritic cells and tumor-associated HEVs.

Background: The innate and adaptive immune responses are dependent on the migration of leukocytes across endothelial cells. Dendritic cells (DCs) play an important role in the initiation of cellular immune responses during their migration from tissues into the lymph nodes where they interact with endothelial cells of lymphatic vessels. We investigated the effect...

In this communication, the contribution of stromal, or non-hematopoietic, cells to the structure and function of lymph nodes (LNs), as canonical secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs), is compared to that of tertiary lymphoid tissue or organs (TLOs), also known as ectopic lymphoid tissues. TLOs can arise in non-lymphoid organs during chronic inflammation, as a result of autoimmune responses, graft re...

Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen presenting cells (APCs), and there is considerable interest in their application as a cellular adjuvant for cancer immunotherapy. Previous studies indirectly demonstrated that DCs were able to take up tumor lysate (crude soluble tumor antigens) and also cross-present tumor associated antigens (TAA) which elicits anti-tumor immune respo...

Background: Nowadays, dendritic cells (DCs) have a special place in cancer treatment strategies and they have been used for tumor immunotherapy as they can induce immune response against tumor cells. Researchers have been trying to generate efficient dendritic cells in vitro therefore, this research was done to generate them for use in research and tumor immunotherapy. Methods: This study took...
متن کاملUnderstanding high endothelial venules: Lessons for cancer immunology
High endothelial venules (HEVs) are blood vessels especially adapted for lymphocyte trafficking which are normally found in secondary lymphoid organs such as lymph nodes (LN) and Peyer's patches. It has long been known that HEVs develop in non-lymphoid organs during chronic inflammation driven by autoimmunity, infection or allografts. More recently, HEVs have been observed in solid, vascularize...
