Dendritic cell ontogeny: A human dendritic cell lineage of myeloid origin [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997
Dendritic cells (DC) have been thought to represent a family of closely related cells with similar functions and developmental pathways. The best-characterized precursors are the epidermal Langerhans cells, which migrate to lymphoid organs and become activated DC in response to inflammatory stimuli.

Dendritic Cell-Based Immunotherapy for Myeloid Leukemias [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2013
Acute and chronic myeloid leukemia (AML, CML) are hematologic malignancies arising from oncogene-transformed hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells known as leukemia stem cells (LSCs). LSCs are selectively resistant to various forms of therapy including irradiation or cytotoxic drugs.

Interaction of Rotavirus with Human Myeloid Dendritic Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2005
ABSTRACTWe have previously shown that very few rotavirus (RV)-specific T cells that secrete gamma interferon circulate in recently infected and seropositive adults and children. Here, we have studied the interaction of RV with myeloid immature (IDC) and mature dendritic cells (MDC) in vitro.

Myeloid dendritic cells in HIV-1 infection [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in HIV and AIDS, 2011
Myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) are pivotal players in HIV-1 infection. They promote transmission and spread and at the same time are critical for recognizing HIV-1 and initiating immune responses to fight infection. Notably, their immunostimulatory capabilities can be harnessed to design better HIV-1 vaccines. In this review, advances in these areas of

Increased Blood Myeloid Dendritic Cells and Dendritic Cell-Poietins in Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2005
Abstract Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH), previously known as histiocytosis X, is a reactive proliferative disease of unknown pathogenesis. Current therapies are based on nonspecific immunosuppression. Because multiple APCs, including Langerhans cells and macrophages, are involved in the lesion formation, we surmised that LCH is a ...

Dendritic Cell-Based Immunotherapy of Acute Myeloid Leukemia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine, 2019
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a type of blood cancer characterized by the uncontrolled clonal proliferation of myeloid hematopoietic progenitor cells in the bone marrow. The outcome of AML is poor, with five-year overall survival rates of less than 10% for the predominant group of patients older than 65 years.

Myeloid blood dendritic cells and monocyte-derived dendritic cells differ in their endocytosing capability [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Immunology, 2012
Human dendritic cells (DCs) constitute a heterogeneous population of antigen-presenting cells characterized by a unique capacity to stimulate naïve T cells. The functions of DCs depend on the particular subset and in this study we compare two types of myeloid DCs: freshly isolated blood mDCs and in vitro generated monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs), in their

Negative impact of proteinuria on circulating myeloid dendritic cells. [PDF]

open access: yesClin Exp Nephrol, 2019
A decrease in absolute numbers (abs.) of circulating dendritic cells (DCs) and recruitment into target organs has been reported, but whether the level of proteinuria associates with circulating DC abs. has not been clarified.We conducted a cross-sectional study of 210 patients with kidney disease aged 21-96 years who were admitted to our hospital for ...

Dendritic cells and myeloid leukaemias: plasticity and commitment in cell differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, 2007
SummaryDendritic cells (DCs) are key antigen‐presenting cells (APCs), which link innate and adaptive immunity, ultimately activating antigen‐specific T cells. This review examines the relationship between the acute and chronic myeloid leukaemias and cells with DC properties.

A dendrite in every pie [PDF]

open access: yesVirulence, 2012
Dendritic cells (DC) are a heterogeneous population of innate immune cells that are fundamental to initiating responses against invading pathogens and regulating immune responses. Myeloid DC (mDC) act as a bridge between the innate and adaptive immune response during virus infections but their role in immunity to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV ...
