— Background
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells that are essential to the adaptability of the immune system. Several subsets of DCs have been identified in tissues that interface with the environment (e.g. skin, mucosal lining). While the role of specific DC subsets are unknown, DCs p…
