Summary: Conventional dendritic cells type 1 (cDC1s) play a critical role in adipose tissue homeostasis, with a connection to NK1.1(+) invariant NKT (iNKT) cells, and have an impact on adipose tissue inflammation and overall metabolic health.

Summary: In human kidney diseases, cDC1 numbers significantly increase in acute tubular necrosis and proliferative glomerulonephritis, mainly located in the interstitium but also in the glomeruli in certain conditions. The number of cDC1s correlates with disease severity, pathological features, and prognosis, while also showing an association with CD8(+) T cell numbers in lupus nephritis and pauci-immune GN.

Summary: The study demonstrates that exposure to PRRSV1.1 isolate 3267 did not induce maturation of cDC1, cDC2, or CD14(+) DCs, but altered TLR3 and TLR7-associated responses. Infected cells led to increased expression of maturation molecules and release of cytokines by cDC2 and CD14(+) DCs.

Summary: This study reveals that DNGR-1 restricts the accumulation of tumor-infiltrating cDC1s induced by Flt3L, and suggests that blocking DNGR-1 may enhance antitumor immunity in the context of high Flt3L expression in tumor therapy settings.

Summary: Dendritic cells play a crucial role in shaping T cell responses through regulation of the enzyme IDO. The activity of IDO in conventional DCs inhibits T cell proliferation, but can be rescued by using an IDO1 inhibitor.

Summary: In this study, XCR1-specific CAR-T cells and CAR-Tregs were developed to specifically target DC1. XCR1 CAR-T cells selectively depleted DC1 and suppressed the development of Th1-driven EAE. XCR1 CAR-Tregs were able to suppress Th1-driven EAE through immune suppression.

Summary: The transcription factor DC-SCRIPT plays a critical role in the development and function of conventional dendritic cells (cDC1), with its deficiency leading to impaired antigen capture and presentation capabilities. This study highlights the importance of DC-SCRIPT in maintaining the identity and functional attributes of cDC1s.

Summary: This review summarizes the mounting evidence that conventional dendritic cells (cDC) can also present native antigen to B cells besides priming T cells, supporting the view that both cDC1 and cDC2 are capable of initiating humoral responses provided antigen is captured by relevant surface receptors attuned to this process. Such understanding is fundamental for the development of innovative humoral vaccination approaches.

Summary: This study aimed to analyze the immunologic features of MIS-C patients compared to febrile controls. The results showed that elevated cytokines, activation of type 1 dendritic cells, and dysregulation of NK cells were key features in the pathophysiology of this syndrome.

Summary: In this study, the researchers investigated the role of the STAT3 signaling pathway in the ability of different types of dendritic cells to prime CD4(+) T cell responses. They found that STAT3 signaling pathway regulates the function of cDC1 to promote Th1 and Th1-like Tfh cell responses, but does not control the ability of cDC2 to promote Tfh cell responses.

Summary: This study provides evidence for the function of lung dendritic cells during pulmonary infection. The results suggest that LangDC1 cells impair immune response, affecting the clearance of C. neoformans in the early stage of cryptococcosis.

Summary: Targeting cDC1 as a therapeutic option in cancer vaccines holds potential in improving tumor immunogenicity. Manipulation of cDC1 quantity and quality shows promise in enhancing the immune response in cancer patients. New technologies are advancing rapidly in understanding and generating cDC1 in vitro for clinical translation.

Summary: Type 1 diabetes is believed to be caused by autoimmune attack on insulin-producing β-cells, triggered by immune system errors. Islet-resident macrophages and dendritic cells play a crucial role in the onset and development of T1D by linking stressed β-cells with activation of the adaptive immune system. Understanding the interaction between β-cells and innate immune cells can offer new insights into disease initiation and potential treatment options.
