Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Progression of armed CTL from draining lymph node to spleen shortly after localized infection with herpes simplex virus 1.
- Cutting edge: precursor frequency affects the helper dependence of cytotoxic T cells.
- Rapid cytotoxic T lymphocyte activation occurs in the draining lymph nodes after cutaneous herpes simplex virus infection as a result of early antigen presentation and not the presence of virus.
- The cross-priming APC requires a Rel-dependent signal to induce CTL.
- Constitutive, but not inflammatory, cross-presentation is disabled in the pancreas of young mice.

- CD36 is differentially expressed by CD8+ splenic dendritic cells but is not required for cross-presentation in vivo.
- The role of dendritic cell subsets in selection between tolerance and immunity.
- Peripheral deletion of autoreactive CD8 T cells by cross presentation of self-antigen occurs by a Bcl-2-inhibitable pathway mediated by Bim.
- The CD8alpha(+) dendritic cell is responsible for inducing peripheral self-tolerance to tissue-associated antigens.
- The early expression of glycoprotein B from herpes simplex virus can be detected by antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.
