abstract = {DC-SIGN is a C-type lectin of recognized importance in immunology and in the pathogenicity human pathogens. Monoclonal antibodies directed against DC-SIGN have been generated, but their systemic characterization for interfering with binding of the HIV-1 glycoprotein 120 has often been omitted. Moreover, so far, no anti-DC-SIGN monoclonal antibody has been described that recognizes its antigen after formalin fixation and paraffin embedding. In this study, we have generated new anti-DC-SIGN monoclonal antibodies using HeLa cells stably expressing DC-SIGN as immunogen. We have obtained 11 hybridoma clones producing antibodies that recognized DC-SIGN on monocyte-derived dendritic cells and on dermal-type macrophages. Seven monoclonal antibodies displayed a capacity to interfere with DC-SIGN binding to HIV-1 gp120. One recognized DC-SIGN on formalin-fixed dendritic cells and macrophages. Using this antibody we have obtained specific labelling of DC-SIGN and colocalisation with the dermal macrophage marker CD163 on human skin. The described monoclonal anti-human DC-SIGN antibodies will be of use to the scientific community to address fundamental immunology issues, in particular concerning macrophages and dendritic cells, and help elucidate infection events of pathogen targeting DC-SIGN as recognition receptor},

abstract = {Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a subset of T cells that recognize glycolipid antigens presented by the CD1d molecule. Accumulating evidences showed that iNKT cells are implicated in the regulatory mechanisms that control autoimmunity. We evaluated the number of circulating iNKT cells in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) by flow cytometry and performed a longitudinal analysis of iNKT cell frequency in RA patients who were given an anti-CD20 therapy. Significantly lower iNKT cell numbers were measured in the blood from RA patients compared to healthy individuals (ptextless0.0001) and low iNKT cell frequencies were rather associated with an active disease. In RA patients who received rituximab treatment, iNKT cell number was increased in relation to the clinical outcome. We demonstrated that the number of iNKT cells is altered in RA patients and that following rituximab therapy, clinical remission of RA is associated with an increase of iNKT cell frequency.},
