Myeloid or type 1 dendritic cell leukaemia is an exceedingly rare haematopoietic neoplasm characterized by a specific immunophenotypic profile close to plasmacytoid dendritic cell and acute myelogenous leukaemia. A 77-year-old man presenting specific cutaneous infiltration by myeloid dendritic cell leukaemia is reported. The clinical features as well as the cutaneous histopathological and immun...

Dendritic cells are key initiators and regulators of the immune response. Dendritic cell commitment and function require orchestrated regulation of transcription. Gata1 is a transcription factor expressed in several hematopoietic lineages. However, Gata1 function has not been explored in the monocytic or dendritic cell compartment. Here, we show that Gata1 is expressed in myeloid and plasmacyto...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW Dendritic cells are specialized antigen-presenting cells which link innate and adaptive immunity, through recognition and presentation of antigen to T cells. Although the importance of dendritic cells has been demonstrated in many animal models, their contribution to human immunity remains relatively unexplored in vivo.Given their central role in infection, autoimmunity, and m...

BCR/ABL fusion gene, encoding a paradigmatic tyrosine kinase involved in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), can modulate the expression of genes involved in natural killer (NK) cell target recognition. Recent reports outline the role of allogeneic antileukemic NK effectors in the graft-versus-leukemia effect but the regulation of NK cell activation in the setting of graft-versus-leukemia effec...

The biomimetic nanovaccines not only promoted antigens endocytosis into dendritic cells via receptor-mediated pathways but also induced cross-presentation eliciting CD8+ T-cell responses. CPG-ODN as an adjuvant further enhanced the anti-tumor immune

the immunopathology of sarcoidosis remains elusive despite years of research into this multiorgan disease.however, recent studies have provided new insights into the genetics and immune components involved in the clinical manifestation of the disease. granulomatous inflammation is due to the host immune response to a persistent poorly degradable unknown antigen.mycobacterium tuberculosis (mtb) ...

CD19 is expressed on B- lineage cells and follicular dendritic cells and plays a key role in B cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases. Thus, it has been considered as potential target for several monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). For decades, chemotherapy has been known as one of the major antitumor therapies eradicating high proliferative tumor cells. But, anti- CD19 mAbs developed for treating...
