| Research Abstract |
We evaluated the antigen presenting capacity of skin dendritic cell(DC) subset by subset-specific depletion using CD11c-DTR and Langerin-DTR mice in combination with bone marrow chimeric techniques. Depletion of Langerhans cells alone in the elicitation phase induced a prolonged contact hypersensitivity(CHS) response, whereas CHS response was almost diminished when both LCs and dermal DCs were depleted. We also developed new research model for graft-versus-host disease(GVHD), Involucrin-mOVA mice.
