Consequently, heteroclitic peptide analogs are predicted to be more immunogenic than their native counterparts because of more stable binding at the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs).
Apcs deficiency was however associated with markedly increased renal damage, suggesting that this gene may be involved in preventing pathological consequences of autoantibody production.
The best example of such an approach is treatment with UV-A and psoralens, as well as UV-B, which result in depletion of APCs and produce one of the most long-lasting remissions of the disease which might last in some instances for as long as 6 months [ 31 32 ] A key antigenic marker of skin APCs is CD1a.
Thus, high doses of peptide and/or the higher levels of expression of heteroclitic peptide on APCs may induce and actively propagate predominantly T cells with RE too low for recognition of physiological levels of the native peptide present on tumor targets.
In this issue of PLoS Biology , Marina Botto and her colleagues have tested this hypothesis by taking one of their knockout models for SLE, the serum amyloid P component deficient mouse ( Apcs −/− ) (Bygrave et al.
