CD1a function in human skin disease
The high expression of CD1a on Langerhans cells in normal human skin suggests a central role for this lipid antigen presenting molecule in skin homeostasis and immunity. Although the lipid antigen presenting function of CD1a has been known for years, the physiological and pathological functions of the CD1a system in human skin remain incompletely ...

Staphylococcal phosphatidylglycerol antigens activate human T cells via CD1a [PDF]
Expressed on epidermal Langerhans cells, CD1a presents a range of self-lipid antigens found within the skin; however, the extent to which CD1a presents microbial ligands from bacteria colonizing the skin is unclear.

Differentiation of CD1a− and CD1a+ monocyte-derived dendritic cells is biased by lipid environment and PPARγ [PDF]
AbstractAccumulating data have shown that the microenvironment of dendritic cells modulates subtype differentiation and CD1 expression, but the mechanisms by which exogenous factors confer these effects are poorly understood. Here we describe the dependence of CD1a− monocyte-derived dendritic cell (moDC) development on lipids associated with the ...

Isolated Langerhans Histiocytosis in Thyroid: Thyroidectomy or Chemotherapy? [PDF]
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disorder of mononuclear phagocytic system whose clinical presentation varies from the localised involvement of a single bone to a widely disseminated disease.

Functional CD1a is stabilized by exogenous lipids [PDF]
AbstractSelf‐glycosphingolipids bind to surface CD1 molecules and are readily displaced by other CD1 ligands. This capacity to exchange antigens at the cell surface is not common to other antigen‐presenting molecules and its physiological importance is unclear.

Monitoring Circulating CD207+CD1a+ Cells in Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis and Clinical Implications
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a disorder characterized by an abnormal accumulation of CD207+ and CD1a+ cells in almost any tissue. Currently, there is a lack of prognostic markers to follow up patients and track disease reactivation or treatment

Polyclonal T-cells express CD1a in Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) lesions. [PDF]
Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a complex and poorly understood disorder that has characteristics of both inflammatory and neoplastic disease.

CD1a Reactivity in Non-neoplastic Adenohypophysis [PDF]
Within the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with sellar or suprasellar lesions is Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH). CD1a staining is frequently used to identify the presence of an abnormal proliferation of Langerhans cells on histologic sections and contributes to the diagnosis of LCH.

A polymorphism in human CD1A is associated with susceptibility to tuberculosis [PDF]
CD1 proteins are antigen-presenting molecules that evolved to present lipids rather than peptides to T cells. However, unlike major histocompatibility complex genes, CD1 genes show low rates of polymorphism and have not been clearly associated with human disease.
