Lipid-laden dendritic cells fail to function

摘要：

@@ Dendritic cells(DCs)are professional antigen-acquiring,-processing and-presenting cells”1-4”.As such,DCs form the key link between the innate and acquired immune responses playing a role in host defence and in immune tolerance”1-4”.Accordingly,defects in the ability of DCs to function can lead to increased susceptibility to infection,loss of tolerance,autoimmunity and tumour growth”1-4”.Sub-classes of DCs are defined and discriminated by the expression of different cell surface markers.
