Plasmacytoid dendritic cells in angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia
Background: Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is characterized by irregularly-shaped blood vessels with an inflammatory infiltrate. While absent from normal skin, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) infiltrate the skin upon injury and during several infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic entities. In addition to providing anti-viral resistance, pDCs link the innate and adapti...
متن کاملT helper 9 cells induced by plasmacytoid dendritic cells regulate interleukin-17 in multiple sclerosis.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease of the central nervous system (CNS) characterized by persistent inflammation orchestrated by cluster of differentiation (CD) 4 T helper (Th) cells. In particular, Th1 and Th17 cells amplify, whereas T regulatory (Treg) cells moderate inflammation. The role of other Th subsets in MS is not clear. In the present study, we investigated the generation of...
متن کاملImpaired maturation and altered regulatory function of plasmacytoid dendritic cells in multiple sclerosis.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) represent a DC subtype that exerts divergent functions in innate and adoptive immunity including the immediate reaction to microbial factors and the induction of immunoregulatory responses. It is thought that different DC subtypes may be critically involved in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis (MS). In our study we assessed the phenotype, maturation and ...
متن کاملPlasmacytoid Dendritic Cells in Atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the vessel wall and the underlying cause of cardiovascular disease, is initiated and maintained by innate and adaptive immunity. Accumulating evidence suggests an important contribution of autoimmune responses to this disease. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs), a specialized cell type known to produce large amounts of type I interferons (IFNs...
متن کاملP 140: Stem Cells in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Inflammation caused by immune cells destroy the myelin and then axon. CNS failure to complete repair results in permanent disabilities. Some types of stem cells have special potentials to repair these injuries and even cure MS. Neural crest stem cells with a mutual origin with CNS and the ability of differen...
