Abstract excerpt
Epithelia-associated dendritic cells (DC) including Langerhans cells in the skin (LC) are precursors of lymph node located interdigitating DC (iDC). CD1a+ LC are known to be derived from CD34+ haemopoietic progenitor cells (HPC); however, cells of an intermediate differentiation state that are CD...
