To isolate immune cells, Lanna and his collaborators derived T cells and APC cells from the blood of human research participants, then cultured these cells. Then they exposed the cells to a mixture of ...

A stable interaction between antigen-presenting cells (APC) and T cells is dependent not only on the absolute affinity between the T-cell receptor (TCR) and its ligand but also on the relative ...

APC encodes a tumor suppressor protein. Usually, tumor suppressors keep cells from growing out of control. When certain changes in tumor suppressor genes happen, this function is inhibited.

Antigen processing and presentation is the process by which protein antigen is ingested by an antigen-presenting cell (APC), partially digested into peptide fragments and then displayed on the ...

Recently, the researchers identified two distinct subpopulations of mitral/tufted (M/T) cells within the OB that project to the anterior piriform cortex (aPC) and entorhinal cortex (EC). These neural ...
