...N. Kofler; C. Ruedl; C. Rieser; G. Wick; H. Wolf Encouraged by recent findings showing the usefulness of nonreplicating antigen delivery systems in the induction of mucosal immune responses, we investigated microspheres as a means to deliver LW 50020, an immunomodulator consisting of lysates...

...Christiane Ruedl; Hugo Wolf In this review, we focus on some key areas concerning the unique properties of the mucosal immune system. They are: (1) the fact that the common mucosal immune system consists of different compartments; (2) the advantages of oral vaccination, which can be exploited...

... enhances T cell activation while acting as a coreceptor for CD44. The expression of class II MHC molecules by mucosal epithelial cells has generated interest in the role that these cells may have in mucosal immunity. Since in classical antigen–presenting cells (APC) the biology of class II MHC is regulated...
