Lysosomal Activity in Antigen-Presenting Cells (N/A)

01

Overview

Lysosomal activity in antigen-presenting cells (APCs) is a crucial process for adaptive immunity. Lysosomes degrade internalized antigens into peptides, which are then loaded onto MHC-II molecules for presentation to T cells. This process involves various proteases, pH regulation, and regulatory pathways like mTOR. Different APC types exhibit specialized lysosomal functions, affecting antigen retention and presentation efficiency. Dysregulation of lysosomal activity can impact immune responses in various diseases.
