Abstract excerpt
We have established recently long-term dendritic cell lines from the epidermis of newborn BALB/c mice. These lines, termed XS series, resembled epidermal resident Langerhans cells or their progenitors in terms of surface phenotype, antigen-presenting capacity, and growth factor requirement. We ex...
