Which antigens bind to antigen-presenting cells for their presentation through mannose receptor?

Which antigens bind to antigen-presenting cells for their presentation through mannose receptor? Correct Answer Lipoglycan antigens

Lipoglycan antigens are the non-peptide antigens which bind to APCs (Antigen Presenting Cells) with the help of pattern recognition molecules like mannose receptor and CD14. They follow endosomal pathway which helps the lipoglycan antigens to bind to CD1. They further form antigen-CD1 complex where the actual recognition takes place.

Receptor R is over expressed in CHO cells and analyzed for expression. 6 × 107 cells were incubated with its radioactive ligand (specific activity 100 counts per picomole). If the total counts present in cell pellet was 1000 cpm. the average number of receptors R per cell is (assume complete saturation of receptors with ligand and one ligand binds to one receptor)
