Receptor-Mediated Delivery of Antigens to Dendritic Cells:  Anticancer Applications

Abstract: Recently, there has been a surge of interest in the use of ex vivo antigen-pulsed dendritic cells (DCs) in the immunotherapy for cancer. DCs are powerful adjuvants with the ability to prime naive CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. As antigen sources, various preparations, including peptides, proteins, crude tumor lysates, and DCs transfected or transformed with various viruses, have been used. These procedures that involve the isolation of patient DCs and reintroduction after in vitro manipulation are time-consuming and e… Show more

“…Although in several vaccination trials Ag was formulated with adjuvant, which directly or indirectly mediates uptake by DCs and their maturation, 45 receptor targeting of DCs with specific constructs was not yet performed in humans. Experiments in mice and in vitro experiments with human DCs showed first promising results, indicating that in vivo targeting of DCs may be applicable as a therapeutic modality in cancer immunotherapy.…”

“…A range of approaches is being considered for targeting, including Ab [3][4][5] and synthetic nanoparticles [6]. Administration of Ag conjugated to ligands or Ab that bind specific DC receptors has been extensively investigated as a means of targeting directly to DC in vivo and thereby enhance uptake and presentation [7]. The immunological outcome of such targeting is influenced by the distribution of the targeted receptor among DC subsets, the specific receptor targeted and the presence or absence of coadministered adjuvant [8][9][10][11][12][13][14].…”

“…One crucial class of such receptors is the C-type lectin, which contains carbohydrate-binding motifs that recognize a wide array of sugar-associated ligands [1,2]. C-type lectins such as the mannose receptor (MR, CD206), DC-SIGN (CD209), Dectin-1 and langerin have a high affinity for mannosylated antigens [2,3].…”
