Bluetongue Virus Targets Conventional Dendritic Cells in Skin Lymph [PDF]
ABSTRACTBluetongue virus (BTV) is the etiological agent of bluetongue, a hemorrhagic disease of ruminants (particularly sheep), which causes important economic losses around the world. BTV is transmitted primarily via the bites of infected midges, which inject the virus into the ruminant's skin during blood feeding.

Peripheral CD103+ dendritic cells form a unified subset developmentally related to CD8α+ conventional dendritic cells [PDF]
Although CD103-expressing dendritic cells (DCs) are widely present in nonlymphoid tissues, the transcription factors controlling their development and their relationship to other DC subsets remain unclear. Mice lacking the transcription factor Batf3 have a defect in the development of CD8α+ conventional DCs (cDCs) within lymphoid tissues.

GM-CSF, Flt3-L and IL-4 affect viability and function of conventional dendritic cell types 1 and 2
Conventional type 1 dendritic cells (cDC1) and conventional type 2 dendritic cells (cDC2) have attracted increasing attention as alternatives to monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDCs) in cancer immunotherapy.

TGF-β1 Accelerates Dendritic Cell Differentiation from Common Dendritic Cell Progenitors and Directs Subset Specification toward Conventional Dendritic Cells [PDF]
Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) in lymphoid tissue comprise conventional DCs (cDCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) that develop from common DC progenitors (CDPs). CDPs are Flt3+c-kitintM-CSFR+ and reside in bone marrow. In this study, we describe a two-step culture system that recapitulates DC development from c-kithiFlt3−/lo multipotent ...

Dendritic cells during Epstein Barr virus infection
Epstein Barr virus (EBV) causes persistent infection in more than 90% of the human adult population and is associated with 2% of all tumors in humans. This -herpesvirus infects primarily human B and epithelial cells, but has been reported to be sensed ...

Semaphorin 3E deficiency dysregulates dendritic cell functions: In vitro and in vivo evidence.
Regulation of dendritic cell functions is a complex process in which several mediators play diverse roles as a network in a context-dependent manner. The precise mechanisms underlying dendritic cell functions have remained to be addressed.

Applications of Antibody-Based Antigen Delivery Targeted to Dendritic Cells In Vivo
Recombinant immunoglobulins, derived from monoclonal antibodies recognizing the defined surface epitopes expressed on dendritic cells, have been employed for the past two decades to deliver antigens to dendritic cells in vivo, serving as critical tools ...

Human anogenital monocyte-derived dendritic cells and langerin+cDC2 are major HIV target cells
Epithelial tissue mononuclear phagocytes (MNP) can transmit HIV to CD4 T cells, but less is known about sub-epithelial cells. Here, the authors describe MNPs in human anogenital and colorectal tissues and find that CD14+CD1c+ monocyte-derived dendritic ...
