Efficient priming of antigen-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes by human cord blood dendritic cells.
Previous studies have suggested that defective immune responses in early life may be related to the immaturity of neonatal antigen-presenting cells. To test this hypothesis, we assessed the capacity of neonatal dendritic cells (DC) to prime and polarize in vitro human naive antigen-specific T cells....
