antigen-presenting cell , APC (Abkürzung)

There are three main types of professional antigen-presenting cell:

They are often found within tissues where they can be activated by antigen-presenting cells upon infection.

The drug disrupts the mating of the T cell and antigen-presenting cell.

DCs are highly specialized and efficient antigen-presenting cells.

IL-27 is produced by antigen-presenting cells.

Cells called antigen-presenting cells bring foreign substances to the attention of specific T-cells and activate them.

"They meet up with the antigen-presenting cells they were made to see, and suddenly the T-cell is tricked.

There are two "professional" antigen-presenting cells: macrophages and dendritic cells.

That is, dendritic cells function as antigen-presenting cells.

Helper T cell activation also requires longer duration of engagement with an antigen-presenting cell.

These proteins occupy the cleft on antigen-presenting cells in such a way that T-cell activity is suppressed rather than activated.

Antigen-presenting cells contain membrane bound P2X7 receptors which are involved in acute inflammatory responses.

Selection of the appropriate adjuvant, molecules that activate antigen-presenting cells to stimulate immune responses, is required.

An additional co-stimulatory signal is then produced by the antigen-presenting cell, leading to activation of the T cell.

A histiocytoma originates from epidermal Langerhans cells of antigen-presenting cell lineage.

These cells are recognized by macrophages or dendritic cells, which act as antigen-presenting cells.

So, dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells.

Their main function is to process antigen material and present it on the surface to other cells of the immune system, thus functioning as antigen-presenting cells.

It binds to ICAM-1 on antigen-presenting cells and functions as an adhesion molecule.

LFA-1 is the first to bind T-cells to antigen-presenting cells and initially binds weakly.

It is likely that trogocytosis does not involve the capture of vesicles such as exosomes secreted by antigen-presenting cells.

These Langerhans cells are antigen-presenting cells, which pick up pieces of invading pathogens and use them to elicit an immune response.

In skin infections, the local Langerhans cells take up and process microbial antigens to become fully functional antigen-presenting cells.

They are then displayed by the antigen-presenting cells to T cells, which then produce a variety of effects to eliminate the pathogen.

CD1 (cluster of differentiation 1) is a family of glycoproteins expressed on the surface of various human antigen-presenting cells.
