Mechanical licensing of functional dendritic cell states for enhanced T cell priming

Yi Chen, Amanda S. Bluem, Fatemeh Tavakoli Joorabi, Kexin Zhang, Nghi M. Tran, Shuchen Zhang, Hardik Makkar, Kyle H. Vining

This paper shows that mechanical stress relaxation in dendritic cells (DCs) influences their functional states, enhancing T cell priming through improved antigen presentation and migration.
