Langerin-expressing dendritic cells in pulmonary immune-related diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Dendritic cells (DCs) are “frontline” immune cells dedicated to antigen presentation. They serve as an important bridge connecting innate and adaptive immunity, and express various receptors for antigen capture.

Common Polymorphisms in Human Langerin Change Specificity for Glycan Ligands [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Langerin, a C-type lectin on Langerhans cells, mediates carbohydrate-dependent uptake of pathogens in the first step of antigen presentation to the adaptive immune system. Langerin binds a diverse range of carbohydrates including high mannose structures,

Targeting human langerin promotes HIV-1 specific humoral immune responses.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
The main avenue for the development of an HIV-1 vaccine remains the induction of protective antibodies. A rationale approach is to target antigen to specific receptors on dendritic cells (DC) via fused monoclonal antibodies (mAb).

Langerin-Heparin Interaction: Analysis of the Binding to the Non-Lectin Site [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2019
Langerin is a C-type lectin involved in the immune response that forms a trimer in its active form. It can interact with carbohydrates using 2 sites with different selectivity, the C-lectin site, a Ca 2+ -mediated binding, and the cleft between chains ...

Pheochromocytoma With Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis: A Rare Tumor-in-Tumor Case. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) occurring in a Pheochromocytoma in the adrenal gland is exceptionally rare and prone to misdiagnosis. The special coexistent tumors harbor distinct genetic mutations. This uncommon case could introduce novel considerations and a strong teaching message to all the clinicians and pathologists.

Trimeric Structure of Langerin [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
Langerin, an endocytic receptor of Langerhans cells, binds pathogens such as human immunodeficiency virus by recognition of surface glycoconjugates and mediates their internalization into Birbeck granules. Langerin has an extracellular region consisting of a C-type carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) and a neck region that stabilizes formation of ...

Depletion of langerin+ cells enhances cutaneous wound healing [PDF]

open access: yesImmunology, 2020
SummaryLangerin is a C‐type lectin receptor that is expressed on Langerhans cells and langerin‐positive dermal dendritic cells in the skin. Little is known about the function of langerin+ cells in wound healing. In this study, the effects of ablation of langerin+ cells on healing of a full‐thickness excision wound were investigated using the langerin ...

Birbeck granule-like "organized smooth endoplasmic reticulum" resulting from the expression of a cytoplasmic YFP-tagged langerin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Langerin is required for the biogenesis of Birbeck granules (BGs), the characteristic organelles of Langerhans cells. We previously used a Langerin-YFP fusion protein having a C-terminal luminal YFP tag to dynamically decipher the molecular and cellular ...

Murine Intestinal Neonatal and Adult Dendritic Cell Subset Migration and Activation Characteristics in Response to Toll-Like Receptor Stimulation Through MyD88. [PDF]

open access: yesScand J Immunol
Despite their importance, dendritic cell subsets are not well characterised in neonates. We here provide fundamental information on the abundance and phenotype of small‐intestinal neonatal DCs and assess the role of MyD88 in neonatal and adult DC migration in response to several toll‐like receptor ligands.
