Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization and isolation of stem cell–enriched human hair follicle bulge cells

TL;DR: The distribution of label-retaining cells is determined to define the human anagen bulge and CD200+ cells obtained from hair follicle suspensions demonstrated high colony-forming efficiency in clonogenic assays, indicating successful enrichment of living human bulge stem cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Interleukin (IL)-10 in the Persistence of Leishmania major in the Skin after Healing and the Therapeutic Potential of Anti–IL-10 Receptor Antibody for Sterile Cure

TL;DR: A novel therapeutic approach to eliminate latency, infection reservoirs, and the risk of reactivation disease is suggested as sterile cure was achieved in IL-10–deficient and IL-4/IL-10 double-deficient mice.
Journal Article

Activation of Cutaneous Dendritic Cells by CpG-Containing Oligodeoxynucleotides: A Role for Dendritic Cells in the Augmentation of Th1 Responses by Immunostimulatory DNA

TL;DR: It is concluded that immunostimulatory CpG ODN stimulate DC in vitro and in vivo and that bacterial DNA-based vaccines may preferentially elicit Th1-predominant immune responses because they activate and mobilize DC and induce them to produce large amounts of IL-12.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adhesion of epidermal Langerhans cells to keratinocytes mediated by E-cadherin.

TL;DR: It is reported that fresh murine LC express cadherins, and that LC adhere to KC in vitro through E-cadherin, and to begin to elucidate mechanisms involved in LC trafficking, LC-keratinocyte (KC) interactions are characterized.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Role for Endogenous Transforming Growth Factor β1 in Langerhans Cell Biology: The Skin of Transforming Growth Factor β1 Null Mice Is Devoid of Epidermal Langerhans Cells

TL;DR: It is concluded that endogenous TGF-β1 is essential for normal murine LC development or epidermal localization, and LC development is not simply delayed in these animals.
