As the researchers demonstrate, dendritic cells that are marked by expression of the transcription factor RORγt—so-called RORγt + dendritic cells (DCs)—are found in many tissues. Moreover ...

As part of the innate immune system, dendritic cells are in the body's first line of defense against infections. They detect pathogens and coordinate the immune response. An international team led ...

Opal Flutterfin is one of the many Fish available to catch in Hello Kitty Island Adventure. It is a bright pink and blue fish that is easy to recognize. Two Opal Flutterfin are required to ...

To study whether sensory experience affects dendritic morphology, we use the Caenorhabditis elegans’ arborized nociceptor PVD neurons, under natural mechanical stimulation induced by physical contacts ...

The activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) stimulates innate immune cells, releasing cytokines and enhancing T-cell and dendritic cell (DC) functions (6). Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting ...

Dendritic cells (DCs) control the strength and quality of antigen-specific adaptive immune responses. This is critical for launching a robust immunity against invading pathogens while maintaining a ...

This process has several stages and is activated when the naïve T cells interact with antigens that are displayed on the surface of dendritic cells and other immune cells. However, it is not clear ...
