Protocol
Identification of Human Antigen-Specific CD4+ Cells with Peptide-MHC Multimer Technologies
Peptide-major histocompatibility complex class II (pMHCII) multimers have emerged as a convenient and powerful tool for characterization of CD4 T cell immune responses in a large variety of human diseases. Pep...

Open AccessOntogeny of different subsets of yellow fever virus-specific circulatory CXCR5+ CD4+ T cells after yellow fever vaccination
Monitoring the frequency of circulatory CXCR5+ (cCXCR5+) CD4+ T cells in periphery blood provides a potential biomarker to draw inferences about T follicular helper (TFH) activity within germinal center. However,...

Open AccessEfficient ex vivo analysis of CD4+ T-cell responses using combinatorial HLA class II tetramer staining
MHC tetramers are an essential tool for characterizing antigen-specific CD4+ T cells. However, their ex vivo analysis is limited by the large sample requirements. Here we demonstrate a combinatorial staining appr...

Disulphide-isomerase-enabled shedding of tumour-associated NKG2D ligands
A number of advanced tumours appear to evade immune recognition by natural killer cells by shedding the soluble major histocompatibility complex class I-related ligand MICA, which inactivates the NKG2D recepto...
