发明名称 Artificial immune system: methods of use
摘要 The present invention relates to methods of constructing an integrated artificial immune system that comprises appropriate in vitro cellular and tissue constructs or their equivalents to mimic the normal tissues that interact with vaccines in mammals. The artificial immune system can be used to test the efficacy of vaccine candidates in vitro and thus, is useful to accelerate vaccine development and testing drug and chemical interaction with the immune system.

主权项 1. A method for generating dendritic cells, comprising: (a) culturing endothelial cells on an upper surface of a porous membrane, wherein said membrane is housed in an upper chamber of a cell culture well that is suspended over, and is separable from, a lower chamber of the well; (b) applying peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) to the endothelial cells on the porous membrane of (a); (c) removing the upper chamber housing the porous membrane and endothelial cells from the well about 48 hours after application of the PBMCs; and (d) isolating dendritic cells from the lower chamber of the well.
