E-cadherin maintains oral Langerhans cell barrier surveillance to preserve microbiota-dependent immune homeostasis

Anna Brand, Sarah Angabo, Mariia Antipova…·Björn E. Clausen

This study shows that E-cadherin in oral Langerhans cells maintains dendritic morphology and microbiota-dependent immune homeostasis, preventing dysbiosis and inflammation.
