36 results about "Antigen Processing Cell" patented technology

Antigen processing. Antigen processing is an immunological process that prepares antigens for presentation to special cells of the immune system called T lymphocytes. It is considered to be a stage of antigen presentation pathways.

Improved HLA epitope prediction

Adaptive immune responses rely on the ability of cytotoxic T cells to identify and eliminate cells displaying disease-specific antigens on human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules. Investigations into antigen processing and display have immense implications in human health, disease and therapy. To extend understanding of the rules governing antigen processing and presentation, immunopurified peptides from B cells, each expressing a single HLA class I allele, were profiled using accurate mass, high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS). A resource dataset containing thousands of peptides bound to 28 distinct class I HLA-A, -B, and -C alleles was generated by implementing a novel allele-specific database search strategy. Applicants discovered new binding motifs, established the role of gene expression in peptide presentation and improved prediction of HLA-peptide binding by using these data to train machine-learning models. These streamlined experimental and analytic workflows enable direct identification and analysis of endogenously processed and presented antigens.

Modular antigen transporter molecules (MAT molecules) for modulating immune reactions, associated constructs, methods and uses

By adding the novel developed modular antigen transporter molecules (MAT molecules) and other instruments related thereto, the immune system of an individual can be effectively modulated in a targeted manner. The MAT molecules contain a translocation module which transports the MAT molecule inside the cell, an active intracellular targeting molecule resulting in intracellular transport of the MAT molecule to the organelles of the cell which are responsible for antigen processing and an antigen module which determines the specificity of the immune response modulated by the MAT molecule. Optionally, other modules such as tag modules or spacer modules can be contained in the MAT molecule. The invention comprises the inventive MAT molecules, antibodies which are produced using said MAT molecules and therapeutic agents and diagnostic reagents which are produced with MAT molecules. The invention also comprises applications containing said MAT molecules, antibodies, therapeutic agents and diagnostic reagents.

Use of a varicellovirus tap-inhibitor for the induction of tumor-or virus-specific immunity against teipp

The present invention provides a novel approach to the modulation of the immune response, directing it towards specific antigens, away from antigens against which no response is desired. The invention is based on the use of viral immune evasion proteins, such as UL49.5, which block antigen presentation to CD8+ T cells. The viral immune evasion proteins are used for: 1) the induction of tumor-specific or virus-specific immunity in cases where a conventional immune response is absent due to antigen processing defects; 2) the induction of empty MHC class I molecules at the cell surface that can be loaded with peptides of a desired specificity; 3) the inhibition of unwanted immune responses against transplanted tissues or organs, e.g. against islets of Langerhans in type 1 diabetes or allogeneic stem cells, or against self antigens in the case of autoimmunity.

Lipids as synthetic vectors to enhance antigen processing and presentation ex-vivo in dendritic cell therapy

The invention covers the use of certain classes of lipids including cationic lipids in ex-vivo dendritic cell therapies. The cationic lipids enhance antigen uptake, processing and presentation of the processed antigens by dendritic cells to CD8+ and CD4+ T-cells via the MHC classes I and II presentation pathways respectively. Antigen uptake via cationic lipid by dendritic cells result in significant lowering of the population of the immune suppressive regulatory T cells in the tumors and a significant increase of the tumor targeting cytotoxic T-cells. Loss of regulatory T cells and increase of tumor specific cytotoxic cells are conducive to effective elimination of the tumors.

Tapasin augmentation for enhanced immune response

Tapasin (Tpn) is a member of the MHC Class I loading complex and functions to bridge the TAP peptide transporter to MHC Class I molecules. Metastatic human carcinomas express low levels of the antigen processing components (APCs) tapasin and TAP, and display few functional surface MHC Class I molecules. As a result, carcinomas are often unrecognizable by effector cytolytic T cells (CTLs). Tpn alone can enhance survival and immunity of mammals against tumors, but additionally, Tpn and TAP can be used together as components of immunotherapeutic vaccine protocols to eradicate tumors.
