Dendritic Cells (DCs), the most potent antigen-presenting cells, play a critical role in the detection of invading pathogens, which are recognized also by multiple carbohydrate-specific receptors. Among them, DC-SIGN is one of the best characterized, with high-mannose and Lewis-type glycan specificity. In this study, we present a potent DC-SIGN targeting device developed using gold nanoparticles functionalized with a-fucosyl-beta-alanyl amide. The nanoparticles bound to cellular DC-SIGN and induced internalization as effectively as similar particles coated with comparable amounts of Lewis(X) oligosaccharide. They were found to be neutral toward dendritic cell maturation and IL-10 production, thus envisaging a possible use as targeted imaging tools and antigen delivery devices.
