Cross-presentation of virus-like particles by skin-derived CD8(-) dendritic cells: a dispensable role for TAP.

Virus-like particles (VLP) induce efficient CTL responses although they do not carry any genetic information. Here, we analyzed MHC class I associated presentation of VLP-derived CTL-epitopes in vivo. After intradermal injection of VLP containing the immunodominant epitope (p33) of lymphocytic chori...
