Abstract excerpt
In the present study, we analyzed the phenotypic alterations induced by several allergens on immature dendritic cells (DC), with the aim to develop a potential in vitro alternative for predicting the sensitizing potential of chemicals. DC were generated from human monocytes cultured in the presence of GM-CSF, IL-4 and TGF-beta1 and treated for 2 or 4 days with different chemicals. Surface marker expression...
