Overlapping MHC class I/II Epitopes Program cDC1-like Differentiation of Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells via mTORC1 Signaling Inhibition

2026-04-08

Abstract excerpt

Viral infection polarizes monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDC) to initiate type 1 immunity. The availability of overlapping (homologous) MHC class I and II epitopes, an occurrence frequently and primarily associated with intracellular infection, significantly enhances this process; however, the underlying mechanism(s) are unclear. We demonstrate that moDC loaded with homologous MHC epitopes acquire a cDC1-like...
