Dendritic cells (DCs) loaded extracorporeally with antigen can be used as an adjuvant in vivo. In this work, we analyzed the migration of transferred DC and monitored the phenotype of new migrants in the draining lymph nodes. It is surprising that we found that a majority of resident DCs expressed donor MHC molecules and that a proportion of injected DCs acquired host MHC molecules. These observations suggest that a bidirectional MHC molecule exchange occurs between migratory and resident DCs, a mechanism that may amplify antigen presentation in vivo.

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).

D006649 Histocompatibility Antigens A group of antigens that includes both the major and minor histocompatibility antigens. The former are genetically determined by the major histocompatibility complex. They determine tissue type for transplantation and cause allograft rejections. The latter are systems of allelic alloantigens that can cause weak transplant rejection.

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.
