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.

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.

Migratory conventional dendritic cells in the induction of peripheral T cell tolerance [PDF]
ABSTRACTConventional DCs are an extremely heterogeneous cell population that comprises several different subsets. A major distinction can be made between lymphoid-resident DCs that are present in the lymphoid tissues and the blood and migratory DCs that reside in the nonlymphoid tissues and migrate to the lymph nodes, both in homeostatic conditions and

Immunostimulatory conventional dendritic cells evolve into regulatory macrophage-like cells [PDF]
AbstractDendritic cell (DC) homeostasis in peripheral tissues reflect a balance between DC generation, migration, and death. The current model of DC ontogeny indicates that pre-cDCs are committed to become terminal conventional DCs (cDCs). Here, we report the unexpected finding that proliferating immunostimulatory CD11c+ MHC class II+ cDCs derived from

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.

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 ...

CD14 Expressing Precursors Give Rise to Highly Functional Conventional Dendritic Cells for Use as Dendritic Cell Vaccine [PDF]
Induction of long-lasting immunity by dendritic cells (DCs) makes them attractive candidates for anti-tumor vaccination. Although DC vaccinations are generally considered safe, clinical responses remain inconsistent in clinical trials. This initiated studies to identify subsets of DCs with superior capabilities to induce effective and memory anti-tumor
