摘要:
The invention relates to the regulation of the immune system, and in particularto the finding that the CLEC9a molecule is a marker for dendritic cells which arecapable of cross-presenting extracellular antigens via the MHC class I pathway.This makes them particularly suitable for generation of cytotoxic T lymphocyteresponses. Materials and methods are provided both for the induction of immuneresponses against target antigens, and for the inhibition or suppression ofundesirable immune responses in which these cells are involved.
