Dendritic cells (DCs) are important players of the immune system with important functions such as the identification of infectious pathogens, production of cytokines (chemical signalers of the immune ...

Most dendritic cells reside within the body in a so-called immature state. In this state, these cells are devoid of many of the features and processes that lead to a strong T-cell response, such as ...

Classical dendritic cells (cDCs) are essential for immune responses and differentiate from hematopoietic stem cells via intermediate progenitors, such as monocyte–DC progenitors (MDPs) and common DC ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) are exceptionally potent antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in the human body and are considered the “sentinels” of the immune system. They are essential in establishing, ...

Dendritic cells are immune cells that capture and present antigens to T cells, activating an immune response. Researchers have discovered that short-chain fatty acids produced by intestinal bacteria ...

Researchers from the Institute of Human Virology (IHV) at the University of Maryland School of Medicine have discovered how a ...
