TLDR
In this article, the authors demonstrated that Clever-1 is immunosuppressive towards migrating dendritic cells and thus regulates the magnitude of immune responses created by incoming DCs in the draining lymph nodes.Abstract:
Clever-1 also known as Stabilin-1 and FEEL-1 is a scavenger molecule expressed on a subpopulation of anti-inflammatory macrophages and lymphatic endothelial cells (LECs). However, its role in regulating dendritic cell (DC) trafficking and subsequent effects on immunity have remained unexplored. In this study, we demonstrate that DC trafficking from the skin into the draining lymph nodes is compromised in the absence of Clever-1. By adoptive transfer approaches we further show that the poor trafficking is due to the impaired entrance of DCs into afferent lymphatics. Despite this, injections of ovalbumin-loaded DCs into the footpads induced a stronger proliferative response of OT II T cells in the draining lymph nodes. This could be explained by the increased MHC II expression on DCs and a less tolerogenic phenotype of LECs in lymph nodes of Clever-1 knockout mice. Thus, although fewer DCs reach the nodes, they are more active in creating antigen-specific immune responses. This suggests that the DCs migrating to the draining lymph node within Clever-1 positive lymphatics experience immunosuppressive interactions with LECs. In conclusion, besides being a trafficking molecule on lymphatic vasculature Clever-1 is immunosuppressive towards migrating DCs and thus, regulates the magnitude of immune responses created by incoming DCs in the draining lymph nodes.read more

TL;DR: This method allows by simple means the generation of high numbers of murine DC with very low B cell or granulocyte contaminations, which will be valuable to study DC biology notably at the molecular level.

TL;DR: It is shown here that functional integrins do not contribute to migration in three-dimensional environments, and these cells migrate by the sole force of actin-network expansion, which promotes protrusive flowing of the leading edge.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that LN-resident lymphatic endothelial cells express multiple peripheral tissue antigens (PTAs) independent of the autoimmune regulator (Aire), and that other LN stromal subpopulations express distinct PTAs by mechanisms that vary in their Aire dependence.
