Adhesion molecules in human dendritic cells.

Abstract excerpt

Dendritic cells are bone marrow-derived professional antigen-presenting cells that link innate and adaptive immunity, and they are essentially involved in the initiation of primary immune responses and in the establishment of peripheral tolerance. The existence of distinct functional states and subsets of dendritic cells is critical for the generation of pathogen-specific immune responses without the risk of...
