LectiNet aims to enhance the immune response against pathogens and cancer by studying how specific receptors on dendritic cells interact with synthetic antigens. This project focuses on using advanced polymers to improve antigen delivery and processing, potentially leading to better vaccine strategies.
Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells due to their ability to prime T-cell immune responses.
The numerous endocytic transmembrane receptors located on their surface can recognise and process endogenous and exogenous antigens.
Despite DCs being efficient sentinels, pathogens, unfortunately, in some cases can evade their guard, and cause viral, bacterial infections, and cancer.
The DCs mechanisms behind the lack or the presence of an immune response are not fully under…
