Functional gap junctions accumulate at the immunological synapse and contribute to T cell activation (2011)Gap junction (GJ) mediates intercellular communication through linked hemichannels from each of two adjacent cells. Using human and mouse models, we show that connexin 43 (Cx43), the main GJ protein in the immune system, ...
-
(2007)Previously, we found that human dendritic cells (hDCs) pulsed with a melanoma cell lysate (MCL) and stimulated with TNF-ce (MCL/TNF) acquire a mature phenotype in vitro and are able to trigger tumor-specific immune responses ...
