Figure 5.

Epidermal leukocytes sequentially acquire CD1c and Langerin. CD1c and Langerin expression in developing human skin was assessed by flow cytometry (A) and in situ by immunofluorescence staining (B). (A) Dot plots show the development of CD45+ cells with regard to the expression of CD1c and Langerin (2,500 CD45+ cells displayed) and are representative of three to five experiments per group. (B) Immunofluorescence triple labeling identifies CD45+CD1c+Langerin+ cells (middle, arrows) at 11 wk EGA. Arrowheads denote a CD45+CD1cLangerin LC precursor. Data are representative of at least three experiments per group. Bars, 50 μm.
