: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT). By static microscopy, cutaneous GVHD lesions contain a mix of T cells and myeloid cells.

T/F viruses have a lowered sensitivity to langerin restriction.
U87 cells were transduced to express langerin, or langerin with a SNP (W264R) that abrogates binding via the CRD, and infected with T/F-viruses or NL4.3Bal. Levels of infection were calculated relative to the percentage of infection in the non-transduced

Second generation of Fucose-based DC-SIGN ligands : affinity improvement and specificity versus Langerin [PDF]
DC-SIGN and Langerin are two C-type lectins involved in the initial steps of HIV infections: the former acts as a viral attachment factor and facilitates viral invasion of the immune system, the latter has a protective effect.

Selective accumulation of langerhans-type dendritic cells in small airways of patients with COPD
Background Dendritic cells (DC) linking innate and adaptive immune responses are present in human lungs, but the characterization of different subsets and their role in COPD pathogenesis remain to be elucidated.

Langerhans cells utilize CD1a and langerin to efficiently present nonpeptide antigens to T cells [PDF]
Langerhans cells (LCs) constitute a subset of DCs that initiate immune responses in skin. Using leprosy as a model, we investigated whether expression of CD1a and langerin, an LC-specific C-type lectin, imparts a specific functional role to LCs.

Langerin ECD interaction onto heparin.
Surface was functionalized with heparin 6 kDa. 100 µL Langerin ECD at 500 nM are injected onto the surface in a Ca2+ containing running buffer. Two modes of surface regenerations are tested, 1: Injection of 30 µL of 50 mM EDTA.

Cutting edge: Langerin/CD207 receptor on dendritic cells mediates efficient antigen presentation on MHC I and II products in vivo [PDF]
The targeted delivery of Ags to dendritic cell (DCs) in vivo greatly improves the efficiency of Ag presentation to T cells and allows an analysis of receptor function.

The C-type lectin langerin/CD207 was originally discovered as a specific marker for epidermal Langerhans cells (LC). Recently, additional and distinct subsets of langerin(+) dendritic cells (DC) have been identified in lymph nodes and peripheral tissues ...

Incorporation of Ags by dendritic cells (DCs) increases when Ags are targeted to endocytic receptors by mAbs. We have previously demonstrated in the mouse that mAbs against C-type lectins administered intradermally are taken up by epidermal Langerhans ...
