Rho-associated kinase regulates Langerhans cell morphology and responsiveness to tissue damage

open access: yesCell Reports
Summary: Skin damage requires efficient immune cell responses to restore organ function. Epidermal-resident immune cells known as Langerhans cells use dendritic protrusions to surveil the skin microenvironment, which contains keratinocytes and peripheral

Immunological characterization of chromogranins A and B and secretogranin II in the bovine pancreatic islet [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
Antisera against chromogranin A and B and secretogranin II were used for analysing the bovine pancreas by immunoblotting and immunohistochemistry. All three antigens were found in extracts of fetal pancreas by one dimensional immunoblotting. A comparison

Implantable Microarray Patch: Engineering at the Nano and Macro Scale for Sustained Therapeutic Release via Synthetic Biodegradable Polymers

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
This review focuses on the application of synthetic biodegradable microarray patches (MAPs) in sustained drug delivery. Compared to conventional MAPs which release drugs into the skin in an immediate manner, these implantable MAPs release drugs into skin microcirculation gradually as the biodegradable polymers degrade, thus offering sustained release ...

Cinobufagin Directly Targets PDE4D to Disrupt Fibroblast–Dendritic Cell Crosstalk in Atopic Dermatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA sequencing revealed that MIF signaling drives inflammatory fibroblastmyeloid cell crosstalk in atopic dermatitis. Cinobufagin, a potent PDE4D inhibitor, suppresses MIF and reduces inflammation by restoring the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway. Genetic knockout validates PDE4D as a key driver and promising therapeutic target for atopic dermatitis ...

Single‐Cell Dissection of the Biological Function and Molecular Features Underlying the Micropeptide LSMEM1 in Kidney

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
LSMEM1, an evolutionarily conserved micropeptide with extreme hydrophobicity (aliphatic index═113) and dynamic amphiphilicity (GRAVY═0.017), features a strong α‐helical transmembrane anchor (residues 64‐86). Single‐cell analysis reveals its critical role in renal lipid homeostasis.

Cyclic AMP signalling in pancreatic islets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Cyclic 3'5'AMP (cAMP) is an important physiological amplifier of glucose-induced insulin secretion by the pancreatic islet β-cell, where it is formed by the activity of adenylyl cyclases, which are stimulated by glucose, through elevation in ...

The Origin of Langerhans Cells

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1980
Langerhans cells constitute a morphologically well-characterized subpopulation (3--8%) of mammalian epidermal cells and, in contrast to the bulk of epidermal cells, bear Fc-IgG and C3 receptors, express immune response associated (Ia) antigens, and function as antigen presenting cells and allogeneic stimulatory cells to primed T lymphocytes.

Polysaccharide Adjuvants as Innate Immune Trainers: Bridging Pattern Recognition Receptor (PRR) Activation and Metabolic Reprogramming for Synthetic Vaccine Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polysaccharides modulate immune responses by engaging pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) to induce T‐cell activation. In vaccine design, their particle size critically influences lymph node targeting and activation mechanisms. By engineering structural complexity and multivalent PRR engagement, polysaccharides enable precise modulation of immune ...

Three cases of congenital self‐healing Langerhans cell histiocytosis with BRAF‐V600E mutation

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, 2022
Congenital self‐healing Langerhans cell histiocytosis (CSHLCH) is a rare variant of Langerhans cell histiocytosis characterised by the presence of skin lesions in the neonate and spontaneous self‐healing after a variable period of time.

B70/B7-2 is identical to CD86 and is the major functional ligand for CD28 expressed on human dendritic cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Dendritic cells comprise a system of highly efficient antigen-presenting cells involved in the initiation of T cell responses. Herein, we investigated the role of the CD28 pathway during alloreactive T cell proliferation induced by dendritic-Langerhans ...
