Journal ArticleDOI

Configuration-dependent Presentation of Multivalent IL-15:IL-15Rα Enhances the Antigen-specific T Cell Response and Anti-tumor Immunity.

TL;DR: It is found that trans-presenting IL-15:IL-15Rα in a multivalent fashion on the surface of antigen-encapsulating nanoparticles enhanced the ability of nanoparticle-treated dendritic cells (DCs) to stimulate antigen-specific CD8+ T cell responses.
Journal Article

B7-1 expression by a non-antigen presenting cell-derived tumor.

TL;DR: It is found that a tumor cell line derived from one such tumor expresses the T-cell costimulatory molecule B7-1, the expression of which is normally restricted to antigen-presenting cells, and several immortalized cell lines, which are nontumorigenic and thus have suffered only early genetic events in the tumorigenesis process, express B7.
Journal ArticleDOI

Murine leukemia virus sequences are encoded in the murine major histocompatibility complex

TL;DR: The studies reported here localize murine leukemia viral sequences to the TL region of the major histocompatibility complex, H-2, and suggest that the viral sequences detected appear to be linked to or inserted amid class I genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Innate immune recognition of flagellin limits systemic persistence of Brucella

TL;DR: The use of cells and mice genetically deficient for different components of inflammasomes suggested that FliC was a target of the cytosolic innate immune receptor NLRC4 in vivo but not in macrophages in vitro, therefore suggesting a new pathway of cytOSolic flagellin sensing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of the humoral response to the 41-kilodalton flagellar antigen of Borrelia burgdorferi, the Lyme disease agent.

TL;DR: This domain (comprising amino acids 197 to 241) does not share significant homology with other bacterial flagellins and therefore may be useful in serological testing for Lyme disease, and was bound by sera from patients with late-stage Lyme disease.
