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 ...

You, me, and all of the 108 billion or so Homo sapiens who’ve ever walked the Earth have all been our own constellation of some 30 trillion cells. Each of our bodies is a collective organism of ...
