Dendritic cell analysis in primary immunodeficiency
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...
متن کاملIRF8 mutations and human dendritic-cell immunodeficiency.
BACKGROUND The genetic analysis of human primary immunodeficiencies has defined the contribution of specific cell populations and molecular pathways in the host defense against infection. Disseminated infection caused by bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccines is an early manifestation of primary immunodeficiencies, such as severe combined immunodeficiency. In many affected persons, the cause of...
متن کاملReplication of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 in primary dendritic cell cultures.
The ability of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) to replicate in primary blood dendritic cells was investigated. Dendritic cells compose less than 1% of the circulating leukocytes and are nondividing cells. Highly purified preparations of dendritic cells were obtained using recent advances in cell fractionation. The results of these experiments show that dendritic cells, in contra...
متن کاملPrevalence of Primary Immunodeficiency Diseases in Kerman, Southeast of Iran
Objective: Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) are rare and heterogeneous congenital diseases leading to increased unusual susceptibility to developing infections and causingsome malignancies and autoimmune diseases. This study was conducted to evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of primary these diseases in patients attending the clinic of immunodeficiency diseases in Kerman.Subje...
متن کاملAltered dendritic cell distribution in patients with common variable immunodeficiency
Recent data suggest a critical role for dendritic cells (DCs) in the generation of immunoglobulin-secreting plasma cells. In the work reported herein, we analyzed the frequency of peripheral blood plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) and myeloid DCs (mDCs) in a cohort of 44 adults with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) classified according to their CD27 membrane expression status on B cells. A deep al...
