Cross-presentation of viral and self antigens by skin-derived CD103+ dendritic cells
Skin-derived dendritic cells (DCs) include Langerhans cells, classical dermal DCs and a
langerin-positive CD103+ dermal subset. We examined their involvement in the …

Different patterns of peripheral migration by memory CD4+ and CD8+ T cells
Infections localized to peripheral tissues such as the skin result in the priming of T-cell
responses that act to control pathogens. Activated T cells undergo migrational imprinting …
