By knocking out or beguiling dendritic cells, they slip the defenses of the immune system and sack the unsuspecting body. New research shows that one of the most common types of skin cancer has ...

Skin immunity is mediated mainly by Langerhans cells and Vγ3 T cell receptor (TCR)-expressing dendritic epidermal T cells (DETCs), which are in intimate contact with neighboring cells.

The study of transcriptomic signatures, and of migratory and T cell-stimulatory properties, has unravelled the functional specialization that exists among skin antigen-presenting cell (APC) types.

During a live event, Gary J. Schiller, MD, reviewed the diagnostics and characteristics of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic ...

Design_Cells / Shutterstock Dendritic cells are found in tissue that has contact with the outside environment, such as lung mucosa, epithelial cells of the skin, and the linings of the nose and ...

But he also says he finds it fascinating to figure out the ways dendritic cells and nociceptors work together as a neuroimmune unit in both skin and mucosal surfaces. “They just use different means to ...

Dendritic cells serve as sentries of the immune system and are stationed at the body's "outposts," like the skin, where they are likely to encounter invading pathogens. When dendritic cells ...
