Dendritic cells are a system of antigen presenting cells that function to initiate several immune responses such as the sensitization of MHC-restricted T cells, the rejection of organ transplants, and the formation of T-dependent antibodies. Dendritic cells are found in many nonlymphoid tissues ...
Considering the substantial role played by dendritic cells (DCs) in the immune system to bridge innate and adaptive immunity, studies on DC-mediated immunity toward biomaterials principally center on their adjuvant effects in facilitating the adaptive immunity of codelivered antigens. However, the effec...

Expressed on hematopoietic cells, Fc receptors (FcRs) play an important role in immune responses by binding to the Fc region of an antibody. FcRs can bind to different immunoglobulins (IgA, IgM, IgE, and IgG), participating in antibody-mediated innate and adaptive immune responses (Table2) [3...
B and T lymphocytes are the mediators of immunity, but their function is under the control of dendritic cells. Dendritic cells in the periphery capture and process antigens, express lymphocyte co-stimulatory molecules, migrate to lymphoid organs and secrete cytokines to initiate immune responses. The...
Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that control the generation of adaptive immunity. Consequently, DCs have a central role in the induction of protective immunity to pathogens and also in the pathogenic immune response respon
cells to the lymphoid tissues and optimal activation of the immune responses. Cytokines produced during this process influence the immune responses generated by subtypes of CD4+T cells such as T helper 1 (Th1) cells (by IL-12), Th2 cells, and regulatory T cells. The role of DCs in ...
The specific or acquired immune system of vertebrates is a powerful weapon against pathogens and pathologically altered body cells. Here, T cells play a special role. After activation, they can systematically kill off target cells that have degenerated or are infected with a virus. ...
In the development of the immune response, the dendritic cell subset of leukocytes plays a key role in enhancing immunogenicity. Dendritic cells can pick up antigens in the tissues and move to lymphoid organs, through which T cells continually recirculate. It is proposed that dendritic cells at ...

Cryopreservation of monocytes was investigated to understand its effect on differentiation into immature monocyte-derived dendritic (imdDCs), the response to inflammatory stimuli and the ability...
