BACKGROUND: Because antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs) play a major role in the polarization of T cells, including T(H)2 cells involved in allergy, strategies to modify DCs genetically are required. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this investigation was to transduce murine bone marrow-derived DCs with lentiviral vectors encoding antigen to demonstrate antigen processing and MHC class I-dependent presentation....
