Table of Contents:
  • Conventional and non-conventional antigen processing pathways
  • Innate stimuli boost antigen capture, processing and presentation
  • Destructive antigen processing is minimised in dendritic cells (DC)
  • Class II MHC display is regulated by ubiquitination
  • Linking antigens and TLR ligands can enhance presentation
  • Distinct endocytic compartments and/or distinct dendritic cell sub-sets may host antigen presentation on class I MHC molecules (cross-presentation) and on class II MHC molecules
  • Antigen bearing migratory DC and lymph node resident DC can collaborate to induce T cell responses
