Gene context of Langerhans Cells

  • Our model assigns unprecedented roles to CXCL14 and epidermal tissue as attractant and niche of differentiation, respectively, in the renewal of Langerhans cells under steady-state conditions [27].
  • Gfi1-/- mice showed a global reduction of myeloid and lymphoid DCs in all lymphoid organs whereas epidermal Langerhans cells were enhanced in number [28].
  • R5 HIV productively infects Langerhans cells, and infection levels are regulated by compound CCR5 polymorphisms [29].
  • Compared with normal vulval skin, VIN lesions showed increased infiltration by CD4 (T-helper) and CD68 (macrophages) but not CD1a (Langerhans cells) or CD8 (CTLs) [30].
  • We first show that MV-infected Langerhans cells or monocyte-derived DCs undergo a maturation process similarly to the one induced by TNF-alpha or LPS, respectively [31].
