Relationships between distinct blood monocyte subsets and migrating intestinal lymph dendritic cells in vivo under steady-state conditions.

The origins of dendritic cells (DCs) are poorly understood. In inflammation, DCs can arise from blood monocytes (M(O)s), but their steady-state origin may differ, as shown for Langerhans cells. Two main subsets of M(O)s, defined by expression of different chemokine receptors, CCR2 and CX(3)CR1, have...
