Hypomorphic mutation in the RAG2 gene affects dendritic cell distribution and migration. [PDF]
In Omenn syndrome, altered dendritic cell distribution and impaired migration represent an additional level of immune dysregulation, contributing to the pathogenesis of autoimmunity. OS is a severe combined immunodeficiency characterized by erythrodermia

A population of Langerin-positive dendritic cells in murine Peyer's patches involved in sampling β-glucan microparticles. [PDF]
Glucan particles (GPs) are 2-4 μm hollow, porous shells composed of 1,3-β-D-glucan that have been effectively used for oral targeted-delivery of a wide range of payloads, including small molecules, siRNA, DNA, and protein antigens.

Peripheral CD103+ dendritic cells form a unified subset developmentally related to CD8α+ conventional dendritic cells [PDF]
Although CD103-expressing dendritic cells (DCs) are widely present in nonlymphoid tissues, the transcription factors controlling their development and their relationship to other DC subsets remain unclear. Mice lacking the transcription factor Batf3 have

Dendritic Cell Migration: An Essential Step in Initiating Adaptive Immunity Across Tissues. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Immune surveillance of tissues is primarily carried out by dendritic cells (DCs), which act as sentinels for the adaptive immune system. To accomplish this task, DCs migrate from tissues to regional lymph nodes, or from blood‐exposed regions of the spleen to the white pulp, to prime T cell responses. DC migration is a tightly regulated process

Increase of DC-LAMP+ mature dendritic cell subsets in dermatopathic lymphadenitis of mycosis fungoides [PDF]
Background: Little is known about the immunological milieu of the skin-draining lymph nodes (LNs) in mycosis fungoides (MF). Objectives: We studied dendritic cell (DC) subsets in the dermatopathic lymphadenitis of MF patients.

Batf3-dependent CD11b(low/-) peripheral dendritic cells are GM-CSF-independent and are not required for Th cell priming after subcutaneous immunization. [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) subsets differ in precursor cell of origin, functional properties, requirements for growth factors, and dependence on transcription factors.
