Abstract

In this review, we focus on the function of CD40-CD40L (CD154) interactions in the regulation of dendritic cell (DC)-T cell and DC-B cell crosstalk. In addition, we examine differences and similarities between the CD40 signaling pathway in DCs and other innate immune cell receptors, and how these pathways integrate DC functions. As research into DC vaccines and immunotherapies progresses, further understanding of CD40 and DC function will advance the applicability of DCs in immunotherapy for human diseases.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Engagement of CD40 with its ligand induces recruitment of TRAFs and initiates signaling cascades that activate genes involved in cytokine production, as well as upregulation of co-stimulatory molecules such as CD80 and CD86.

    “Engagement of CD40 with its ligand induces recruitment of TNF receptor-associated factor family of proteins (TRAFs) and initiates signaling cascades that activate genes involved in cytokine production, as well as upregulation of co-stimulatory molecules such as CD80 and CD86 (37).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
