Dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial in determining the outcome of antigen encounter and
integrating signals derived from the antigen, its inflammatory context, and the host …

Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen presenting cells that display an extraordinary
capacity to present antigen to naïve T‐cells and initiate primary immune responses. In the …

Increasing evidence points to the role of antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DC) in regulating
adaptive immune responses. DC are especially sensitive to signals derived from microbes …

The role of dendritic cells (DC s) in airway allergy has been studied for 15 years; recent data
has highlighted the cross talk with airway epithelial cells and environmental factors …

Dendritic cells (DCs) initiate and maintain adaptive T helper 2 (Th2) cell responses to
inhaled allergens in asthma. Various functions like antigen uptake, migration to the draining …

The large quantities and complex mixtures of antigens encountered daily at airway mucosal
and alveolar surfaces pose a major challenge to maintenance of immunological …

Atopic asthma pathogenesis is driven by the combined effects of airway inflammation
generated during responses to viral infections and aeroallergens, and both these pathways …

Dendritic cells (DCs) are generally held responsible for initiating and maintaining allergic T
helper 2 (TH2)-cell responses to inhaled allergens in asthma. Although the epithelium was …

Antigen-presenting dendritic cells are essential for the recognition and presentation of
allergens to the cells of the immune system. Airway dendritic cells capture allergen in the …

Dendritic cells (DCs) are primary antigen-presenting cells involved in interactions with T
cells leading to the proliferation of TH1 or TH2 cell types. In asthma, predominance of TH2 …
