abstract = {Female mosquitoes rely on blood feeding to acquire sufficient nutrients for egg development. Because of the importance of this process mosquitoes evolved salivary proteins with a broad range of functions acting as blood thinners, anti-coagulants and immunosuppressants. The effect of these proteins on the blood at the bite site directly influences the size of the blood bolus a female takes up in a given time frame. Both, time of feeding and bolus size, are important parameters for fecundity and survival. Recent studies have shown that a significant proportion of salivated proteins is re-ingested during feeding and becomes part of the blood meal. Here we investigated the salivary protein Saglin which has been previously suggested as putative receptor mediating malaria parasite entry into the salivary gland. By engineering a loss-of-function mutant in An. coluzzi we could show that the absence of Saglin impairs the development of parasite stages in the blood meal of the rodent malaria parasite P. berghei and the human malaria parasite P. falciparum lowering the parasite burden of subsequent stages and preventing efficient transmission at low infection densities. Furthermore, we could show that Saglin is present in the blood meal after feeding possibly indicating a previously overlooked parasite-vector interaction.},

abstract = {Interleukin (IL)-36 cytokines belong to the IL-1 family and include three agonists, IL-36 α, β and γ and one inhibitor, IL-36 receptor antagonist (IL-36Ra). IL-36 and IL-1 (α and β) activate similar intracellular pathways via their related heterodimeric receptors, IL-36R/IL-1RAcP and IL-1R1/IL-1RAcP, respectively. However, excessive IL-36 versus IL-1 signaling induces different phenotypes in humans, which may be related to differential expression of their respective receptors. We examined the expression of IL-36R, IL-1R1 and IL-1RAcP mRNA in human peripheral blood, tonsil and skin immune cells by RT-qPCR. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MDDC), M0, M1 or M2-polarized macrophages, primary keratinocytes, dermal macrophages and Langerhans cells (LC) were stimulated with IL-1β or IL-36β. Cytokine production was assessed by RT-qPCR and immunoassays. The highest levels of IL-36R mRNA were found in skin-derived keratinocytes, LC, dermal macrophages and dermal CD1a(+) DC. In the blood and in tonsils, IL-36R mRNA was predominantly found in myeloid cells. By contrast, IL-1R1 mRNA was detected in almost all cell types with higher levels in tonsil and skin compared to peripheral blood immune cells. IL-36β was as potent as IL-1β in stimulating M2 macrophages, keratinocytes and LC, less potent than IL-1β in stimulating M0 macrophages and MDDC, and exerted no effects in M1 and dermal macrophages. Levels of IL-1Ra diminished the ability of M2 macrophages to respond to IL-1. Taken together, these data are consistent with the association of excessive IL-36 signaling with an inflammatory skin phenotype and identify human LC and M2 macrophages as new IL-36 target cells.},

abstract = {Langerhans cells, a subset of skin dendritic cells in the epidermis, survey peripheral tissue for invading pathogens. In recent functional studies it was proven that Langerhans cells can present exogenous antigen not merely on major histocompatibility complexes (MHC)-class II molecules to CD4+ T cells, but also on MHC-class I molecules to CD8+ T cells. Immune responses against topically applied antigen could be measured in skin-draining lymph nodes. Skin barrier disruption or co-application of adjuvants was required for maximal induction of T cell responses. Cytotoxic T cells induced by topically applied antigen inhibited tumor growth in vivo, thus underlining the potential of Langerhans cells for immunotherapy. Here we review recent work and report novel observations relating to the potential use of Langerhans cells for immunotherapy. We investigated the potential of epicutaneous immunization strategies in which resident skin dendritic cells are loaded with tumor antigen in situ. This contrasts with current clinical approaches, where dendritic cells generated from progenitors in blood are loaded with tumor antigen ex vivo before injection into cancer patients. In the current study, we applied either fluorescently labeled protein antigen or targeting antibodies against DEC-205/CD205 and langerin/CD207 topically onto barrier-disrupted skin and examined antigen capture and transport by Langerhans cells. Protein antigen could be detected in Langerhans cells in situ, and they were the main skin dendritic cell subset transporting antigen during emigration from skin explants. Potent in vivo proliferative responses of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were measured after epicutaneous immunization with low amounts of protein antigen. Targeting antibodies were mainly transported by langerin+ migratory dendritic cells of which the majority represented migratory Langerhans cells and a smaller subset the new langerin+ dermal dendritic cell population located in the upper dermis. The preferential capture of topically applied antigen by Langerhans cells and their ability to induce potent CD4+ and CD8+ T cell responses emphasizes their potential for epicutaneous immunization strategies.},

abstract = {Langerhans cells (LC) are the dendritic APC population of the epidermis, where they reside for long periods and are self-replicating. The molecular signals underlying these characteristics are unknown. The TNF superfamily member receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL, TNFSF11) has been shown to sustain viability of blood dendritic cells in addition to its role in promoting proliferation and differentiation of several cell types, notably osteoclasts. In this study, we have studied expression of the RANKL system in skin and have defined a key role for this molecule in LC homeostasis. In vitro and in vivo, human KC expressed RANKL and epidermal LC expressed cell surface RANK. In vitro, RANKL sustained CD34(+) progenitor-derived LC viability following 72-h cultures in cytokine-free medium (79.5 +/- 1% vs 55.2 +/- 5.7% live cells, respectively; n = 4; p textless 0.05). In vivo, RANKL-deficient mice displayed a marked reduction in epidermal LC density (507.1 +/- 77.2 vs 873.6 +/- 41.6 LC per mm(2); n = 9; p textless 0.05) and their proliferation was impaired without a detectable effect on apoptosis. These data indicate a key role for the RANKL system in the regulation of LC survival within the skin and suggest a regulatory role for KC in the maintenance of epidermal LC homeostasis},

Although Langerhans cells have first been described 140 years ago, only recently has a lively scientific debate arisen as to their functional role in vivo, i.e., in the living organism. This is mainly due to the advent of modern, sophisticated experimental models that allow to tackle hitherto unaddressed problems. It is not yet entirely clear whether an immunogenic or a tolerogenic function of Langerhans cells prevails in vivo. Here, we attempt to summarize and discuss the current knowledge on the immunobiology of Langerhans cells with emphasis on their role in vivo.},

abstract = {Langerhans cells and dermal dendritic cells migrate to the draining lymph nodes through dermal lymphatic vessels. They do so in the steady-state and under inflammatory conditions. Peripheral T cell tolerance or T cell priming, respectively, are the consequences of migration. The nature of dendritic cell-containing vessels was mostly defined by electron microscopy or by their lack of blood endothelial markers. Selective markers for murine lymph endothelium were hitherto rare or not available. Here, we utilised recently developed antibodies against the murine hyaluronan receptor, LYVE-1, to study the lymph vessel network in mouse skin in more detail. In hairless skin from the ears, lymph vessels were spread out in a horizontal plane. They formed anastomoses, and they possessed frequent blind endings that were occasionally open. Lymph vessels were wider than blood vessels, which were identified by their strong CD31 expression. In body wall skin LYVE-1 reactive vessels did not extend laterally but they dived straight down into the deeper dermis. There, they are connected to each other and formed a network similar to ear skin. The number and width of lymph vessels did not grossly change upon inflammatory stimuli such as skin explant culture or tape stripping. There were also no marked changes in caliber in response to the TLR 7/8 ligand Imiquimod. Double-labelling experiments of cultured skin showed that most of the strongly cell surface MHC II-expressing (i.e. activated) dendritic cells were confined to the lymph vessels. Langerin/CD207(+) cells within this population appeared later than dermal dendritic cells, i.e. langerin-negative cells. Comparable results were obtained after stimulating the skin in vivo with the TLR 7/8 ligand Imiquimod or by tape stripping. In untreated skin (i.e. steady state) a few MHC II(+) and Langerin/CD207(+) cells, presumably migrating skin dendritic cells including epidermal Langerhans cells, were consistently observed within the lymph vessels. The novel antibody reagents may serve as important tools to further study the dendritic cell traffic in the skin under physiological conditions as well as in conditions of adoptive dendritic cell transfer in immunotherapy.},

abstract = {Large B cell lymphomas can comprise numerous CD14+ cells in the tumor stroma, which raises the question of whether monocytes can support B cell survival and proliferation. We show that the coculture of monocytes with B cells from peripheral blood or from diffuse large B cell lymphoma enabled prolonged B cell survival. Under these conditions, diffuse large lymphoma B cells proliferated, and addition of B cell-activating factor of the TNF family (BAFF) and IL-2 enhanced cell division. Monocytes and dendritic cells (DC) had similar antiapoptotic activity on healthy B cells but displayed differences with respect to B cell proliferation. Monocytes and cord blood-derived CD14+ cells promoted B cell proliferation in the presence of an anti-CD40 stimulus, whereas DC supported B cell proliferation when activated through the BCR. DC and CD14+ cells were able to induce plasmocyte differentiation. When B cells were activated via the BCR or CD40, they released the leukocyte attractant CCL5, and this chemokine is one of the main chemokines expressed in diffuse large B cell lymphoma. The data support the notion that large B cell lymphoma recruit monocytes via CCL5 to support B cell survival and proliferation},

Odontoblasts situated at the pulp/dentin interface are the first cells encountered by these bacteria and therefore could play a crucial role in this response. In the present study, we found that in vitro-differentiated odontoblasts constitutively expressed the pattern recognition receptor TLR1-6 and 9 genes but not TLR7, 8, and 10. Furthermore, lipoteichoic acid (LTA), a wall component of Gram-positive bacteria, triggered the activation of the odontoblasts. LTA up-regulated the expression of its own receptor TLR2, as well as the production of several chemokines. In particular, an increased amount of CCL2 and CXCL10 was detected in supernatants from LTA-stimulated odontoblasts, and those supernatants augmented the migration of immature dendritic cells in vitro compared with controls. Clinical relevance of these observations came from immunohistochemical analysis showing that CCL2 was expressed in vivo by odontoblasts and blood vessels present under active carious lesions but not in healthy dental pulps. In contrast with this inflammatory response, gene expression of major dentin matrix components (type I collagen, dentin sialophosphoprotein) and TGF-beta1 was sharply down-regulated in odontoblasts by LTA. Taken together, these data suggest that odontoblasts activated through TLR2 by Gram-positive bacteria LTA are able to initiate an innate immune response by secreting chemokines that recruit immature dendritic cells while down-regulating their specialized functions of dentin matrix synthesis and mineralization.},

abstract = {CD14(+) interstitial cells reside beneath the epidermis of skin and mucosal tissue and may therefore play an important role in viral infections and the shaping of an antiviral immune response. However, in contrast to dendritic cells (DC) or blood monocytes, these antigen-presenting cells (APC) have not been well studied. We have previously described long-lived CD14(+) cells generated from CD34(+) hematopoietic progenitors, which may represent model cells for interstitial CD14(+) APC. Here, we show that these cells carry DC-SIGN and differentiate into immature DC in the presence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor. We have compared the CD14(+) cells and the DC derived from these cells with respect to dengue virus and human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. Both cell types are permissive to dengue virus infection, but the CD14(+) cells secrete the anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin 10 and no tumor necrosis factor alpha. Regarding HIV, the CD14(+) cells are permissive to HIV-1, release higher p24 levels than the derived DC, and more efficiently activate HIV Pol-specific CD8(+) memory T cells. The CD14(+) DC precursors infected with either virus retain their DC differentiation potential. The results suggest that interstitial CD14(+) APC may contribute to HIV-1 and dengue virus infection and the shaping of an antiviral immune response.},
