Mice deficient in synaptic protease neurotrypsin show impaired spaced long-term potentiation and blunted learning-induced modulation of dendritic spines
Neurotrypsin (NT) is a neuronal trypsin-like serine protease whose mutations cause severe mental retardation in humans. NT is activated in vitro by...

Cytokine-armed dendritic cell progenitors for antigen-agnostic cancer immunotherapy
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting myeloid cells that regulate T cell activation, trafficking and function. Monocyte-derived DCs pulsed...

Examining the Kinetics of Phagocytosis-Coupled Inflammasome Activation in Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Dendritic Cells
In the present chapter, we describe procedures to assess NLRP3 and NLRC4 inflammasome assembly by immunofluorescence microscopy or live cell imaging,... -
In Vitro Generation of Murine Dendritic Cells from Hoxb8-Immortalized Hematopoietic Progenitors
Mouse dendritic cells (DCs) are routinely generated based on cells isolated form the bone marrow (BM) and cultured in the presence of growth factors... -
CaMKIV mediates spine growth deficiency of hippocampal neurons by regulation of EGR3/BDNF signal axis in congenital hypothyroidism
Congenital hypothyroidism (CH) will cause cognitive impairment in the condition of delayed treatment. The hippocampus is one of the most affected...

MDSC-derived S100A8/9 contributes to lupus pathogenesis by promoting TLR7-mediated activation of macrophages and dendritic cells
Toll-like receptors (TLRs), especially TLR7, play an important role in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pathogenesis. However, the regulatory...

Galectin-9 interacts with Vamp-3 to regulate cytokine secretion in dendritic cells
Intracellular vesicle transport is essential for cellular homeostasis and is partially mediated by SNARE proteins. Endosomal trafficking to the...

Conversion of dendritic cells into tolerogenic or inflammatory cells depends on the activation threshold and kinetics of the mTOR signaling pathway
BackgroundRestoring impaired peripheral immune tolerance is the primary challenge in treating autoimmune diseases. Our previous research demonstrated...

Transforming Growth Factor-β1 in Cancer Immunology: Opportunities for Immunotherapy
Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β)TGF-β regulates a plethora of cell-intrinsic processes that modulate tumor progression in a context-dependent... -
Dendritic cell-based vaccine prolongs survival and time to next therapy independently of the vaccine cell number
In 2009, new EU legislation regulating advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs), consisting of gene therapy, tissue engineering and cell-based...
