STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE SPLEEN
... Recently, various publications have reported that whether marginal-zone B cells or follicular B cells are generated is a cell-fate decision of mature B cells that is controlled by signalling through Notch proteins and by the activity of E proteins90,91. In the absence of Notch-2 or RBP-J (Igκ joinin ...

- 13th International Workshop on Langerhans Cells
... The fact that the Nobel Prize in Medicine 2011 was awarded to Ralph M. Steinman "for his discovery of the dendritic cell and its role in adaptive immunity" underlines the importance of dendritic cells. Dendritic cells, including epidermal skin Langerhans cells are considered to be master regulator ...

The promise of immunotherapy in head and neck squamous cell
... Although both CTLA-4 and PD-1 are inhibitory coreceptors expressed on T cells, they have distinct ligands and functions. After antigen-driven T-cell receptor (TCR)-mediated T-cell activation,13 CTLA-4 binds to ligands cluster of differentiation 80 (CD80) and cluster of differentiation 86 (CD86)14 an ...

Endogenous collagen peptide activation of CD1d
... usually activated by CD1d-presented lipid antigens. However, peptide recognition in the context of CD1 has also been documented, although no self-peptide ligands have been reported to date. Here, we have identified an endogenous peptide that is presented by CD1d to activate mouse NKT cells. This pep ...
