MicroRNAs regulate Dendritic Cell Development and Function [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a key role in the initiation of adaptive immune responses and the maintenance of self-tolerance. Due to their therapeutic potential, understanding the mechanisms that guide DC differentiation and effector functions is important.

Systematic Chemoenzymatic Synthesis of O-Sulfated Sialyl Lewis x Antigens. [PDF]
O-Sulfated sialyl Lewis x antigens play important roles in nature. However, due to their structural complexity, they are not readily accessible by either chemical or enzymatic synthetic processes.

Topographical variations in the skin barrier and their role in disease pathogenesis
Unlike the gut, the skin appears uniform at first glance. However, histological and molecular biological research has revealed significant regional variations in the composition and function of its main barrier elements. In this review, we describe the topographical differences of four barrier elements in healthy skin: microbiome, chemical, physical ...

The Role of Langerin⁺ CD8α⁺ Dendritic Cells in Tumour Immunotherapy [PDF]
<p>The immune system has the potential to selectively target and eliminate tumours cells. However, the induction of an immunosuppressive environment by factors released by tumours cells, or by the tumour stroma, in combination with difficulties in differentiating between healthy and malignant cells, contributes to inefficient or disabled anti ...

Langerhans cell histiocytosis in an adult patient
Aim: to present a clinical case of a rare dermatosis — Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) in an adult patient.Materials and methods. A clinical and laboratory examination of a 64-year-old woman who had complained of rashes on the skin of the scalp, neck,

The convergent synthesis of Lewis‐X‐containing betulinic acid and echinocystic acid saponins (1 and 2) is presented. The synthetic saponins were shown to inhibit, at the low micromolar range, the DC‐SIGN‐ and L‐SIGN‐mediated transfer of HIV‐1 infection to CD4‐positive cells, whereas free Lewis‐X, aglycones, and structurally similar triterpenoid ...

Langerhans cells (LCs) are antigen-presenting cells in the epidermis whose roles in antigen-specific immune regulation remain incompletely understood. Desmoglein 3 (Dsg3) is a keratinocyte cell-cell adhesion molecule critical for epidermal integrity and ...

Dendritic cells: Key players in human herpesvirus 8 infection and pathogenesis [PDF]
Human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8; Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus) is an oncogenic gammaherpesvirus that primarily infects cells of the immune and vascular systems.

Glycobiology of immune responses [PDF]
Unlike their protein roommates and their nucleic acid cousins, carbohydrates remain an enigmatic arm of biology. The central reason for the difficulty in fully understanding how carbohydrate structure and biological function are tied is the non-template ...

Kutane Dendritische Zell-Subpopulationen in Pathogenese und Therapie dermatologischer Erkrankungen [PDF]
Dendritische Zellen (DCs) sind die wichtigsten antigen-präsentierenden Zellen des Immunsystems. Sie stellen die Verbindung zwischen angeborenem und erworbenem Immunsystem dar und entscheiden über die Art der Immunantwort, über Toleranz oder Immunität ...
