Fig. 1. Similarities between antigen surveillance in the lymph node and the dural sinuses.
In the lymph node, antigen enters through the afferent lymphatic vessels and is picked up by macrophages in the subcapsular sinus and dendritic cells in the parenchyma for antigen presentation. T cells enter through high endothelial venules, a process carefully controlled by L-selectin interactions. In the brain, antigen drains from the brain through the subarachnoid space and into the Dura. Here, antigen presenting cells pick up brain antigen and present it to T cells which infiltrate through the superior sagittal sinus in a VLA4/LFA/PSGL-1 dependant manner.
