A novel cell subset: interferon-producing killer dendritic cells.

Science in China. Series C, Life sciences - 1 Aug 2008

Wang Jiongkun, Xing Feiyue

Abstract excerpt

Recent reports introduce a novel cell subset of DCs with antigenic phenotypes shared by both NK cells and B cells, but without surface markers of pDCs and T cells, appearing to be a chimera of NK cells and DCs, namely interferon-producing killer dendritic cells (IKDCs). IKDCs not only secret type I and type II interferons to recognize and kill tumor cells effectively, but also express MHC-II molecules to present...
