Collagen Type II peptide antigen presentation via MHC Class II on dendritic cells

Molecular classification
Antigen presentation pathway, MHC Class II pathway
01

Overview

Collagen type II is a fibrillar protein found in cartilage. Dendritic cells process collagen type II peptides and present them via MHC class II molecules, leading to CD4+ T cell activation and potential autoimmune responses. This process is central to the development of autoimmune arthritis, such as collagen-induced arthritis (CIA).
