Pulmonary Dendritic Cells

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Dendritic cells (DCs) are leukocytes that are emerging as chief orchestrators of immune responses. The crucial task of DCs is the continuous surveillance of antigen-exposed sites throughout the body, and their unique responsibility is to decide whether to present sampled antigen in an immunogenic or tolerogenic way.

Dendritic cell subsets

Seminars in Cell & Developmental Biology, 2018
Dendritic cells (DC) are professional antigen presenting cells comprising a variety of subsets, as either resident or migrating cells, in lymphoid and non-lymphoid organs. In the steady state DC continually process and present antigens on MHCI and MHCII, processes that are highly upregulated upon activation.

Dendritic Cells

Current Opinion in Hematology, 1998
Dendritic cells are potent stimulators of immune responses against foreign antigens. Recent advances in this area include the delineation of distinct developmental pathways for different dendritic cell subsets; the emerging concept that one dendritic cell subset has regulatory functions that may contribute to induction of tolerance to self antigens ...

Dendritic Cell Biology

2005
Dendritic cells (DCs) are a special type of leukocytes able to alert the immune system to the presence of infections. They play a central role in the initiation of both innate and adaptive immune responses. This particular DC feature is regulated by the activation of specific receptors at the cell surface called Toll-like receptors (TLRs) that bind a ...

Neonatal dendritic cells

Vaccine, 1998
The capacity of lymphoid dendritic cells from human cord blood or adult peripheral blood to support a mixed leukocyte reaction in cord blood and adult T cells has been compared. Cord blood dendritic cells have a limited ability to induce either adult or cord blood T cells to proliferate in response to typical concentration of phytohemagglutinin or ...

Dendritic Cells

The Cancer Journal, 2011
Dendritic cells (DCs) control the initiation and differentiation of T cells. In the steady state, DCs mediate tolerance. To achieve immunization, the tolerogenic function of DCs must be switched off by inducing their maturation with appropriate "adjuvants." Dendritic cells form a system composed of distinct subsets that differ in their expression of ...

Intrathyroidal Dendritic Cells*

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1988
The presence, marker pattern, and ultrastructure of antigen-presenting dendritic cells were studied in normal thyroid glands from 9 subjects (6 obtained at surgery; 3 at autopsy) and in the thyroid glands form 13 patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism, 10 patients with simple nontoxic goiter, and 1 patient with Hashimoto's disease (all obtained at ...

Dendritic Cell Vaccines

2016
Exploitation of the patient's own immune system to induce antitumor immune responses using dendritic cell (DC) immunotherapy has been established in early clinical trials as a safe and promising therapeutic approach for cancer. However, their limited success in larger clinical trials highlights the need to optimize DC vaccine preparations. This chapter

Myeloid dendritic cells

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1999
Abstract There is considerable but as yet incomplete evidence for two developmental lineages of dendritic cells: a myeloid lineage shared with phagocytes and a lymphoid lineage shared with T cells. The two corresponding functional states, which may not require the existence of two formal lineages, are that myeloid dendritic cells capture

Regulatory Dendritic Cells

2017
Dendritic cells (DCs) comprise heterogeneous subsets, functionally classified into conventional DCs (cDCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs). DCs are considered to be essential antigen (Ag)-presenting cells (APCs) that play crucial roles in activation and fine-tuning of innate and adaptive immunity under inflammatory conditions, as well as induction of ...
