No approved human treatments interact directly with MHC II yet, but mouse and human trials have shown that vaccines containing only fragments of antigens (peptide vaccines) may be able to prevent disease. Peptide vaccines are unique in that, unlike traditional vaccines in which a patient receives a ...

Granule exocytosis mediates immune surveillance of senescent cells

In order to understand how NK cells target senescent cells, we employed an in vitro cytotoxicity assay whereby normal and senescent cells are co-cultured with the NK cells.4 We incorporated as one model the human NK cell line, YT. The cells express components of both the death receptor and granule e ...
