Application of confocal microscopy to the study of DALIS and related aggregates

Our group has obtained imaging data on the role of DALIS and related aggregates in antigen presentation and their interaction with the regulation of translation in response to pathogens.

We have implemented in collaboration with lead coordinator Carl Figdor, the organization of the imaging core-facility of the DC-THERA NoE. Experimentally, we have been applying confocal microscopy to the study of DALIS and related aggregates in order to understand their role in antigen presentation and their interaction with the regulation of translation in response to pathogens. We are still in the process of testing the use of translation monitoring by imaging technology as a novel way of defining DC activation.
