Research Abstract |
In this study, we tried to reveal the molecular and cellular mechanisms of activation of anti-tumor immunity by CD169-positive macrophages located in lymph node sinus. We generated CD169-Cre-YFP mice, in which CD169-positive macrophages were specifically labeled with YFP, and examined the character of these cells using the mice. We also identified CD169 macrophages-producing molecules that may be able to activate anti-tumor immunity. We established an experimental model to induce cell death of tumor cells in tumor-bearing mice, found the drastic changes in tumor-associated macrophages after tumor cell death. We also reveal the roles of CD169 macrophages in the immune regulation in non-immune tissues.
