ObjectiveDendritic cells (DCs) are key orchestrators of immune function. To date, rheumatoid arthritis (RA) researchers have predominantly focused on a potential pathogenic role for CD1c+ DCs.

Skin-derived dendritic cells acquire and degrade the scrapie agent following in vitro exposure [PDF]
The accumulation of the scrapie agent in lymphoid tissues following inoculation via the skin is critical for efficient neuroinvasion, but how the agent is initially transported from the skin to the draining lymph node is not known. Langerhans cells (LCs)

Dendritic Cell and Regulatory T Cell numbers in relation to Breast Cancer Progression and Metastasis [PDF]
Background: Breast cancer ranks as the second cause of cancer-related deaths in Egypt. Numerous immunomodulatory pathways underscore the immune system’s involvement in cancer prognosis.

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 ...

Malaria impairs T cell clustering and immune priming despite normal signal 1 from dendritic cells [PDF]
Interactions between antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells are essential for the induction of an immune response. However, during malaria infection, DC function is compromised and immune responses against parasite and heterologous antigens

Conventional Dendritic Cells Impair Recovery after Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
Abstract Ischemic myocardial injury results in sterile cardiac inflammation that leads to tissue repair, two processes controlled by mononuclear phagocytes. Despite global burden of cardiovascular diseases, we do not understand the functional contribution to pathogenesis of specific cardiac mononuclear phagocyte lineages, in particular ...

First Genomic Analysis of Dendritic Cells from Lung and Draining Lymph Nodes in Murine Asthma
Asthma is the consequence of allergic inflammation in the lung compartments and lung-draining lymph nodes. Dendritic cells initiate and promote T cell response and drive it to immunity or allergy.

Aire-dependent production of XCL1 mediates medullary accumulation of thymic dendritic cells and contributes to regulatory T cell development [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) in the thymus (tDCs) are predominantly accumulated in the medulla and contribute to the establishment of self-tolerance. However, how the medullary accumulation of tDCs is regulated and involved in self-tolerance is unclear. We show

Inhibition of phosphatidylserine recognition heightens the immunogenicity of irradiated lymphoma cells in vivo [PDF]
Strategies to enhance the immunogenicity of tumors are urgently needed. Although vaccination with irradiated dying lymphoma cells recruits a tumor-specific immune response, its efficiency as immunogen is poor.
