Helper T Cell Response to Factor VIII In Vivo Requires Several Anatomically Distinct Types of Antigen Presenting Cells
Blood(2021)
Abstract
Inhibitor formation is the most serious complication of factor (F)VIII replacement therapy for hemophilia A. It has long been clear that FVIII inhibitors arise in a CD4 + T cell-dependent manner, but early events in the immune response leading to MHC-II presentation and CD4 + T cell activation remain obscure. Several types of antigen presenting cells (APCs) have been implicated in the uptake of FVIII, but their relevance in T cell activation has been unclear. This study aimed to pinpoint the roles of APCs in priming FVIII-specific CD4 + T cells in vivo.
