Abstract excerpt
Activation of antigen-specific T cells by mature dendritic cells in secondary lymphoid organs is a key control point of the adaptive immune response. Here we describe the ex vivo isolation of preformed multicellular clusters between T cells and antigen-presenting cells. Adoptively transferred, antigen-specific T cells segregated into individual clusters where their activation and proliferation was initiated in...
