Dendritic Cells and Their Role in Allergy: Uptake, Proteolytic Processing and Presentation of Allergens
Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most important antigen presenting cells to activate naïve T cells, which results in the case of Type 1 allergies in a Type 2 helper T cell (Th2)-driven specific immune response towards allergens. So far, a number of different subsets of specialized DCs in different orga...
