An article published in “Nature Comunications” using our some of our mouse antibodies such us Biotin Anti-Mouse CD4 (clone GK1.5), Biotin Anti-Mouse IgM and Biotin Anti-Mouse CD16/32 (clone 2.4G2) by our customers from Spanish National Center of Biotechnology, Madrid, Spain, in the analysis of how Conventional CD4+ T cells present bacterial antigens to induce cytotoxic and memory CD8+ T cell responses. Congrats and Thanks.


Summary:

Bacterial phagocytosis and antigen cross-presentation to activate CD8+T cells are principal functions of professional antigen presenting cells. However, conventional CD4+ T cells also capture and kill bacteria from infected dendritic cells in a process termed transphagocytosis (also known as transinfection). Here, we show that transphagocytic T cells present bacterial antigens to naive CD8+ T cells, which proliferate and become cytotoxic in response. CD4+ T-cell-mediated antigen presentation also occurs in vivo in the course of infection, and induces the generation of central memory CD8+ T cells with low PD-1 expression. Moreover, transphagocytic CD4+ T cells induce protective anti-tumour immune responses by priming CD8+ T cells, highlighting the potential of CD4+ T cells as a tool for cancer immunotherapy.
