Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical in the maintenance of self-tolerance and altered functions of DCs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid ...

A new study has revealed that a special group of cells in the intestines tamp down the immune responses caused by exposure to food proteins. Called 'tolerogenic dendritic cells,' these cells enable ...

including miniature microscopes that captured single-cell resolution in live animals. The study shows that memories are stored in dendritic compartments: When one memory forms, the affected ...

Now, a new study led by researchers at NYU Langone Health has revealed that a special group of cells in the intestines tamp down the immune responses caused by exposure to food proteins. Called ...

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes and natural killer cells are essential effectors of anti-tumor immune responses in vivo. Dendritic cells (DC) 'prime' tumor antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes ...
