Laboratories around the world, many represented here, have now elucidated the broad
outlines of the dendritic cell system. Dendritic cells occupy three compartments: a) …

The relative contribution of dermal-derived immunocompetent cells to the overall
immunologic response in skin has been hampered by the lack of appropriate isolation …

Soon after methicillin was introduced into clinical practice in the early 1960s, resistant
strains of Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) appeared, bearing a newly acquired resistance …

Dendritic cells, while effective in sensitizing T cells to several different antigens, show little or
no phagocytic activity. To the extent that endocytosis is required for antigen processing and …

Dendritic cells (DC) isolated from lymphoid tissues are generally thought to be
nonphagocytic in culture. It has therefore been unclear how these cells could acquire …

Murine epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) have been shown to internalize Leishmania major,
a cause of human cutaneous leishmaniasis, and to stimulate a vigorous parasite‐specific T …

IL-10 has previously been shown to inhibit cytokine production by Th1 cells by blocking
macrophage accessory cell function. In this study we demonstrate that dendritic cell-induced …

In the rat, mesenteric lymphadenectomy allows collection of dendritic cells (DC) derived from
the small intestine after cannulation of the thoracic duct. We prepared rats this way and …

The ability of B cells or macrophages and dendritic cells (DC) to elicit class II-restricted T cell
responses in vivo was compared using a mouse chimera model. Severe combined …

The contribution of dendritic cells (DC) in the initial priming of CD4+ T lymphocytes in vivo
was examined. To assess the capacity of different APC to prime CD4+ T cells, a series of …
