Plasmacytoid dendritic cells in angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia
Background: Angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia (ALHE) is characterized by irregularly-shaped blood vessels with an inflammatory infiltrate. While absent from normal skin, plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) infiltrate the skin upon injury and during several infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic entities. In addition to providing anti-viral resistance, pDCs link the innate and adapti...
متن کاملCutting edge: Role of TANK-binding kinase 1 and inducible IkappaB kinase in IFN responses against viruses in innate immune cells.
TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and inducible IkappaB kinase (IKK-i) are involved in the activation of transcription factors inducing the production of type I IFNs. Although TBK1, but not IKK-i, is critical for LPS-induced IFN induction, the role of these kinases in the responses against viral infection is yet to be determined. In this study, we show that type I IFN production against various RNA ...
متن کاملNFATC3 promotes IRF7 transcriptional activity in plasmacytoid dendritic cells
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) rapidly produce large amounts of type 1 interferon (IFN) after Toll-like receptor 7 and 9 engagements. This specialized function of type 1 IFN production is directly linked to the constitutive expression of IRF7, the master transcription factor for type 1 IFN production. However, the IRF7 regulatory network in pDCs remains largely unknown. In this study, we i...
متن کاملIFN consensus sequence binding protein/IFN regulatory factor-8 guides bone marrow progenitor cells toward the macrophage lineage.
IFN consensus sequence binding protein (ICSBP; IFN regulatory factor-8) is a transcription factor of the IFN regulatory factor family. Disruption of this gene results in a leukemia-like disease in mice. To investigate the role of ICSBP in myeloid cell development, lineage marker-negative (Lin(-)) bone marrow progenitor cells were purified from ICSBP(+/+) and ICSBP(-/-) mice and tested for gene ...
متن کاملEBI2 Is a Negative Regulator of Type I Interferons in Plasmacytoid and Myeloid Dendritic Cells
Epstein-Barr virus induced receptor 2 (EBI2), a Gαi-coupled G protein-coupled receptor, is a chemotactic receptor for B, T and dendritic cells (DC). Genetic studies have also implicated EBI2 as a regulator of an interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7)-driven inflammatory network (IDIN) associated with autoimmune diseases, although the corollary in primary type I IFN-producing cells has not been r...
