Identification of Genes Encoding Antimicrobial Proteins in Langerhans Cells

Identification of Genes Encoding Antimicrobial Proteins in Langerhans Cells

Langerhans cells (LCs) reside in the epidermis where they are poised to mount an antimicrobial response against microbial pathogens invading from the outside environment. To elucidate potential pathways by which LCs contribute to host defense, we mined published LC transcriptomes deposited in GEO an...
