## Abstract Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) recognize antigenic peptides presented by major histocompatibility complex class I (MHCβI) molecules on the surface of target cells. Optimal induction of CD8^+^ CTL depends on the amount of relevant peptide/MHCβI complexes and the presence of coβstimulatory

mmune privilege of the CNS is thought to be maintained by the tight endothelial junctions of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), the absence of adequate connections with the immune system, and the presence of an immunosuppressive microenvironment. This strict regulation of CNS immune reactivity is overco
DCs hold promise for cancer immunotherapy due to their functional ambivalence: iDCs internalize antigens, then mDCs trigger naive T-cell activation. However, no consensus has been reached concerning the optimal mode of antigen acquisition for efficient cross-priming of TAA-specific CTLs, and this re
