Epidermal Langerhans cells (ELC) are definitively primed to differentiate into dendritic cells (DC). It is unknown at what stage of monocyte development this priming occurs. In a culture system characterized by low paracrine stimulation, i.e. Iscove's modified Dulbecco medium (IMDM) with 2% FCS, we tested the ability of peripheral blood monocytes to turn to the route of the LC-DC lineage.
