Project information
XPRIME seeks to identify the dynamic roles of cDC1s in modulating CD8+ T cell responses during immunotherapy using acute depletion schemes, in vivo imaging techniques, and human cancer samples. We will study the role of PD-L1 expressed in this particular subset of dendritic cells as a potential target for immune checkpoint-based immunotherapy and define its limitations in antigen cross-priming. This is an R&D led by Dr Álvaro Teijeira, a researcher at the Immunology and Immunotherapy Program.
