Caveolin-1 mediated uptake via langerin restricts HIV-1 infection in human Langerhans cells
BACKGROUND: Human Langerhans cells (LCs) reside in foreskin and vaginal mucosa and are the first immune cells to interact with HIV-1 during sexual transmission. LCs capture HIV-1 through the C-type lectin receptor langerin, which routes the virus into Birbeck granules (BGs), thereby preventing HIV-1...
