We present and analyze a model for the interaction of naive T cells with antigen presenting cells (APCs) that results in T-cell activation. We use this model to examine delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) reactions. We show that responses can be of two types; either the antigen is completely elimina
umors pose a unique immunological problem in that they are not completely foreign entities, but rather are derived from tissues of the host. Nevertheless, early studies have shown that some autologous tumor cells possess antigens capable of inducing protective immunity (reviewed in Ref. 1). In gener
## Heat shock increases antigenic peptide generation but decreases antigen presentation The heat shock response is a universal and highly conserved cellular response to stress. We describe here the effect of elevated temperature on the capacity of B cells to present antigen. Heat shock markedly af
