TLR signalling regulated antigen presentation in dendritic cells

Colin Watts et al. Curr Opin Immunol. 2010 Feb.

Abstract

Recent evidence suggests that TLR signalling in dendritic cells (DCs) transiently enhances antigen endocytosis and autophagy, augments the assembly of key antigen transport and processing systems, qualitatively modulates protein translation and induces a temporary cessation of DC motility. These rapid changes require activation of the MAP kinases, PI3-kinase and downstream signalling pathways and are observed in both myeloid DC and, with variations on the theme, in plasmacytoid DC.
