DOCK8 is a Cdc42 activator critical for interstitial dendritic cell migration during immune responses.
To migrate efficiently through the interstitium, dendritic cells (DCs) constantly adapt their shape to the given structure of the extracellular matrix and follow the path of least resistance. It is known that this amoeboid migration of DCs requires Cdc42, yet the upstream regulators critical for localization and activation of Cdc42 remain to be determined. Mutations of DOCK8, a member of the at...
متن کاملCdc42-dependent leading edge coordination is essential for interstitial dendritic cell migration.
Mature dendritic cells (DCs) moving from the skin to the lymph node are a prototypic example of rapidly migrating amoeboid leukocytes. Interstitial DC migration is directionally guided by chemokines, but independent of specific adhesive interactions with the tissue as well as pericellular proteolysis. Instead, the protrusive flow of the actin cytoskeleton directly drives a basal mode of locomot...

متن کاملLRCH1 interferes with DOCK8-Cdc42–induced T cell migration and ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis
Directional autoreactive CD4+ T cell migration into the central nervous system plays a critical role in multiple sclerosis. Recently, DOCK8 was identified as a guanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for Cdc42 activation and has been associated with human mental retardation. Little is known about whether DOCK8 is related to multiple sclerosis (MS) and how to restrict its GEF activity. Using tw...
متن کاملDendritic Cell Control of Immune Responses
Dendritic cells (DC) play a critical role in the initiation of the immune response, acting as sentinels in the tissues, reacting to invading pathogens and then inducing the activation and differentiation of naïve T cells. Since their discovery by Ralph Steinman in the 1970s, we have learned a great deal about DC biology and function. Distinct DC subsets exist in specific tissue niches and withi...
