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

Alpha (v) integrins license regulatory T cells to apoptotic cells and self-associated antigens [PDF]
Defects in apoptotic cell clearance are thought to contribute to autoimmunity by failure to induce tolerance, coupled with accumulation of immunogenic material.

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

Dendritic cells in human renal inflammation - Part II [PDF]
Dendritic cells (DCs) are bone marrow-derived professional antigen-presenting cells that act as master regulators of acquired and innate immune responses. Here, we review the available information on their role in human renal inflammation.

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

Direct evidence that leukemic cells present HLA-associated immunogenic peptides derived from the BCR-ABL b3a2 fusion protein [PDF]
The BCR-ABL oncogene is central in the pathogenesis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Here, tandem nanospray mass spectrometry was used to demonstrate cell surface HLA- associated expression of the BCR-ABL peptide KQSSKALQR on class I-negative CIVIL ...

Skin-derived dendritic cells acquire and degrade the scrapie agent following in vitro exposure [PDF]
The accumulation of the scrapie agent in lymphoid tissues following inoculation via the skin is critical for efficient neuroinvasion, but how the agent is initially transported from the skin to the draining lymph node is not known. Langerhans cells (LCs)
