Dendritic cells and their role in skin‐induced immune responses

Zuzana Holı́ková, Jana Hercogová, Jan Plzák, Karel Smetana

Abstract

This artide gives a brief review on dendritic cells (DC) with regard to their origin, life cyde and functions. The regulation of immune responses by DC functioning as antigen-presenting cells is discussed. Special attention is given to epidermal DC, e.g. Langerhans cells. The perspectives of DC-based therapy are also mentioned.
