Description
Langerhans cells (LCs) are a subset of immature dendritic cells (DCs) that specifically localize in the epidermis and other mucosal epithelia. Epidermal LCs possess strong immunostimulatory capacity and play a central role in the initiation and regulation of immune responses . Langerin (CD207) is a Ca(++)-dependent, C-type lectin domain-containing, type II transmembrane protein that induces epidermal LCs to differentiate into Birbeck granules (BG) . BGs are organelles with superimposing and zippering membranes that influence proper class I type antigen presentation to the circulating T-cells. Human spleen, lymph node, thymus, liver, lung and heart express langerin protein. The human langerin gene maps to chromosome 2p13 and encodes a 328 amino acid protein .
