    Abstract: Biomarkers for the detection and identification of a precursor of conventional dendritic cell (cDC) (pre-DC) and its cell subsets (pre-cDC1 or pre-cDC2), are defined, which include CD169, CD327, AXL, CD271, CD324 and combinations thereof for detecting pre-DCs. Methods for detecting a disease or condition, prognosis of an existing disease or condition comprising determining the number of pre-DC cells in sample from a subject as compared to control, as well as methods of treating a patient comprising administration of antibodies against CD169, CD327, AXL, CD271, CD324 and combinations thereof are also disclosed. In addition, an immunogenic composition comprising one or more binding molecules specific for one or more biomarkers or antigen of a target disease and/or one or more cells selected from the group consisting of early pre-DC, pre-cDC1 and pre-cDC2 are also disclosed for eliciting an immune response against an infectious disease or cancer.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of eliciting an immune response to an antigen present endogenously in a mammal. The method may comprise administering to the mammal a composition comprising at least one immunomodulator for inducing cell differentiation and or antigen-presenting function of antigen-presenting cell precursor. The antigen-presenting cell precursor may have taken up the antigen. Also disclosed are a composition for use in the method, an adjuvant comprising the composition, the use of the composition and the immunomodulator as described herein.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of identifying a neutrophil progenitor, the method comprising: determining an expression of at least one biomarker selected from the group consisting of: CD71, LOX-1, CD164, CD112, CD181, TACSTD2, CD11b and CD49d in a cell. In various embodiments, the cell is identified as a neutrophil progenitor when it is determined to have at least one of the following expression profiles: CD71hi/+, LOX-1int/lo/−, CD164hi/+, CD112hi/+, CD181int/lo/−, TACSTD2hi/+, CD11blo/− and/or CD49dint/hi/+. Also disclosed are a method of sorting and/or separating neutrophil progenitors from a cell population, a composition that is enriched in neutrophil progenitors and related uses and methods.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of culturing primitive macrophages from stem cells. Specifically, the method comprises contacting and incubating stem cells with a serum-free culture media comprising a GSK3 inhibitor to differentiate stem cells into cell of the mesoderm lineage, contacting and incubating cells of the mesoderm lineage with a culture media comprising DKK1 to differentiate the cells into the hematopoietic lineage, maturing the cells of the hematopoietic lineage and contacting and incubating these cells with a culture media comprising M-CSF to drive differentiation into primitive-like macrophages. The invention also relates to a primitive-like macrophage, use of the primitive-like macrophage and a kit when used in the method of the invention.

    Abstract: There is provided a method of characterising a macrophage in a tissue of a subject, wherein the method comprises determining an expression of one or more biomarkers in the macrophage, wherein the one or more biomarkers is selected from the group consisting of Folr2, SerpinaSi, Nid2, Slc27a6, SemaSa, Cdh13, Bcl6b, C6, Klf15, Marco, Cd209d, Tshz3, Bmpr1a, Tln2, Coro2b, Ackr2, 1110046J04Rik, Pcdhac2, Gm2253, Vsig4, Phactrt, NpM, CpneS, Angptl7, Gm26714, Auts2, Cxcl13, Sgce, 2900052N01 Rik, Cd209b, Timd4, Cd209g, Mrd (CD206), Spp1, Il22ra2, Gm24112, Gm23010, Ighv7-1, Gm23628, Gm24620, Gm23058, Arhgef37, Gad1-ps, Gm26397, Ighv2-5, Chil3, Mir1934, 1810012K08Rik, Ighv1-59, Gm14119, Gm19620 and Snord71. In one embodiment, the macrophage can be an embryo-derived macrophage and/or a long-lived tissue resident macrophage. In another embodiment, the macrophage can be a monocyte-derived macrophage. Also disclosed are methods of diagnosing a disease in a subject, methods of treating a disease, and kits for use thereof relating to a macrophage determined to express one or more of the said biomarkers.
