The human low affinity receptor for IgE (FcεRD/CD23) is expressed on a wide range of cells
many of which have the capacity to process and present antigen. Thus, CD23 expression is
constitutive on B cells and EBV-transformed B cell lines and can be induced on monocytes,
macrophages and epidermal Langerhans cells (LHC) upon incubation with interleukin-4 (IL-
4) 1, 2, 3.
