Dendritic Cell Migration: An Essential Step in Initiating Adaptive Immunity Across Tissues

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, Volume 337, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Immune surveillance of tissues is primarily carried out by dendritic cells (DCs), which act as sentinels for the adaptive immune system. To accomplish this task, DCs migrate from tissues to regional lymph nodes, or from blood‐exposed regions of the spleen to the white pulp, to prime T cell responses. DC migration is a tightly regulated process
