Dendritic cells in asthma

Current Opinion in Immunology, 2013
The lungs are constantly exposed to antigens, most of which are non-pathogenic and do not require the induction of an immune response. Dendritic cells (DCs) are situated at the basolateral site of the lungs and continuously scan the environment to detect the presence of pathogens and subsequently initiate an immune response.

Isolation of Dendritic Cells

Current Protocols in Immunology, 2009
AbstractThis unit presents two methods for preparing dendritic cells (DCs), a highly specialized type of antigen‐presenting cell (APC). The first method involves the isolation of DCs from mouse spleen, resulting in a cell population that is highly enriched in accessory cell and APC function.

Pulmonary Dendritic Cells

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2005
Abstract 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

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 ...

Dendritic Cell Vaccines

2012
Despite progress in brain tumor therapy, the prognosis of malignant glioma patients remains dismal. Among the new treatments currently being investigated, immunotherapy is theoretically very attractive since it offers the potential for high tumor-specific cytotoxicity.

Migration of Dendritic Cells

International Journal of Hematology, 2005
The migration of dendritic cells (DCs) to lymph nodes (LNs) is pivotal to the establishment of the immune response. DCs have been proved to pass through the afferent lymphatic pathway to enter LNs from the peripheral tissues after they have scanned for self or nonself antigens. In response to danger signals, both myeloid and plasmacytoid DC precursors (

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 ...

Follicular Dendritic Cells and Dendritic Cell Nomenclature

1993
In the 10 years since the last nomenclature committee on dendritic cells met (Tew, Thorbecke and Steinman, J. Reticuloendothelial Society 31:371, 1982), considerable evidence has accumulated supporting the concept that Langerhans cells, interdigitating cells, and veiled cells are the same cell in different stages of maturation. It also appears that the

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
