Ontogeny of Langerin/CD207 Expression in the Epidermis of Mice [PDF]
C-type lectin receptors help Langerhans cells (LC) to take up and process pathogens. Langerin/CD207 is a mannose-binding C-type lectin that is specifically expressed by LC. It is involved in antigen uptake in an as yet poorly defined way, and it is a major molecular constituent of Birbeck granules.

Rational Design of a DNA‐Scaffolded High‐Affinity Binder for Langerin [PDF]
AbstractBinders of langerin could target vaccines to Langerhans cells for improved therapeutic effect. Since langerin has low affinity for monovalent glycan ligands, highly multivalent presentation has previously been key for targeting. Aiming to reduce the amount of ligand required, we rationally designed molecularly defined high‐affinity binders ...

Cutaneous dendritic cells (DCs) have been implicated in the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis (AD). However, the specific role of different subsets of DCs has not been well defined.

Adult-onset of Langerhans cell histiocytosis: a clinical case
Langerhans cell histiocytosis is mainly diagnosed in children, and its manifestation in adult age is quite uncommon. Skin rashes may be non-specific and mimic a number of dermatoses.

Host Langerin (CD207) is a receptor for Yersinia pestis phagocytosis and promotes dissemination [PDF]
Yersinia pestis is a Gram-negative bacterium that causes plague. After Y. pestis overcomes the skin barrier, it encounters antigen-presenting cells (APCs), such as Langerhans and dendritic cells.

In this study we developed a liposome-based vaccine containing palmitoylated synthetic long peptides (SLP) and alpha galactosylceramide (αGC) to specifically target dendritic cells (DC) for activation of both innate (invariant natural killer T-cells ...

In this study, we investigated whether stimulating the skin with ultrasound (US) could activate Langerhans cells (LCs) – antigen-presenting cells in the epidermis and stimulate antibody production following the subcutaneous and intradermal injection of ...

Molecular mechanism of the pH-dependent calcium affinity in langerin [PDF]
Abstract The C-type lectin receptor langerin plays a vital role in the mammalian defense against invading pathogens. Its function hinges on the affinity to its co-factor Ca 2+ which in turn is regulated by the pH.
