Likewise, langerin-positive (resident epithelial) dendritic cells (CD207) were significantly increased in CF tissue (p < 0.0001) with similar levels of significance for all compartments (airways: p < 0.0001, parenchyma: p < 0.0001 and perivascular: p = 0.0001, versus control) (Table 2, Fig. 1). Here, CD207 is linked to cystic fibrosis.
