Kinetic and Structural Studies of Interactions between Glycosaminoglycans and Langerin

Biochemistry, 2016
Langerin, a C-type lectin, is expressed in Langerhans cells. It was reported that langerin binds sulfated glycans, which is an important initial step for its role in blocking human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) transmission by capturing HIV pathogens and mediating their internalization into Birbeck granules for their elimination.

Structural Studies of Langerin and Birbeck Granule: A Macromolecular Organization Model

Biochemistry, 2009
Dendritic cells, a sentinel immunity cell lineage, include different cell subsets that express various C-type lectins. For example, epidermal Langerhans cells express langerin, and some dermal dendritic cells express DC-SIGN. Langerin is a crucial component of Birbeck granules, the Langerhans cell hallmark organelle, and may have a preventive role ...

Gene Polymorphisms of CD207 (Langerin) Are Associated With End-Stage Renal Disease

Transplantation Proceedings, 2016
The CD207 molecule, also known as langerin, is known to be the first immunologic barrier expressed on Langerhans cells, which are the immature dendritic cells of the epidermis and mucosa. Inflammation could be a causal factor in the progression of chronic kidney disease.

Dectin-1 and langerin

Pilz-Beta-Glukane aktivieren die Immunantwort über verschiedene Rezeptoren, darunter C-Typ-Lektin-Rezeptoren (CLRs). Eine besondere Rolle spielt dabei Dectin-1. Frühere Studien deuteten darauf hin, dass der Dectin-1-Signalweg, der zur Interleukinproduktion führt, nur durch Hefepartikel aktiviert werden konnte, indem eine Immunsynapse gebildet wird. Die

Studying the relationship of annexin A2, langerin, and Birbeck granules

2018
Langerhans cells (LC) are the resident antigen presenting cells of the mucosal epithelium and play an essential role in initiating immune responses. LC are the only cells in the body to contain Birbeck granules (BG), unique cytoplasmic organelles comprised of the c-type lectin langerin.
