Dendritic cells (DC) are professional antigen presenting cells that can induce and regulate adaptive immune responses. For that reason, DC are attractive candidates for vaccination strategies. Recently, expression of the IgA Fc receptor (FcalphaRI, CD89) was observed on DC, which activation led to DC maturation. We have investigated the potential of DC FcalphaRI as a target molecule for vaccination against cancer. FcalphaRI expression was observed on human blood myeloid DC. Furthermore, expression of FcalphaRI was low on immature DC, cultured from either human monocytes or FcalphaRI transgenic (Tg) mouse bone marrow cells. Addition of TNF-alpha to culture regimes of both human and mouse DC led to more semi-mature DC, on which FcalphaRI expression was slightly upregulated. FcalphaRI on both human and FcalphaRI Tg mouse DC was internalized after receptor crosslinking. Antigen presentation, measured in FcalphaRI Tg mouse DC, was however minimal. As antigen presentation is crucial to elicit effective T cell responses, these data suggest that targeting of DC FcalphaRI is not optimal for DC vaccination strategies.

D007070 Immunoglobulin A Represents 15-20% of the human serum immunoglobulins, mostly as the 4-chain polymer in humans or dimer in other mammals. Secretory IgA (IMMUNOGLOBULIN A, SECRETORY) is the main immunoglobulin in secretions. IgA,IgA Antibody,IgA1,IgA2,Antibody, IgA

D011961 Receptors, Fc Molecules found on the surface of some, but not all, B-lymphocytes, T-lymphocytes, and macrophages, which recognize and combine with the Fc (crystallizable) portion of immunoglobulin molecules. Fc Receptors,Fc Receptor,Receptor, Fc
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D003713 Dendritic Cells Specialized cells of the hematopoietic system that have branch-like extensions. They are found throughout the lymphatic system, and in non-lymphoid tissues such as SKIN and the epithelia of the intestinal, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. They trap and process ANTIGENS, and present them to T-CELLS, thereby stimulating CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. They are different from the non-hematopoietic FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS, which have a similar morphology and immune system function, but with respect to humoral immunity (ANTIBODY PRODUCTION).

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D015703 Antigens, CD Differentiation antigens residing on mammalian leukocytes. CD stands for cluster of differentiation, which refers to groups of monoclonal antibodies that show similar reactivity with certain subpopulations of antigens of a particular lineage or differentiation stage. The subpopulations of antigens are also known by the same CD designation.

D017951 Antigen Presentation The process by which antigen is presented to lymphocytes in a form they can recognize. This is performed by antigen presenting cells (APCs). Some antigens require processing before they can be recognized. Antigen processing consists of ingestion and partial digestion of the antigen by the APC, followed by presentation of fragments on the cell surface.
