Enhanced cross-presentation and improved CD8+ T cell responses after mannosylation of synthetic long peptides in mice.

The use of synthetic long peptides (SLP) has been proven to be a promising approach to induce adaptive immune responses in vaccination strategies. Here, we analyzed whether the efficiency to activate cytotoxic T cells by SLP-based vaccinations can be increased by conjugating SLPs to mannose residues...
