Dendritic Cells Web Focus and Special Feature brought to you by Immunology & Cell Biology Courtesy of Immunology & Cell Biology, this web focus presents a collection of review and research articles that outline our current understanding of DC heterogeneity, how different populations contribute to T cell responses, and how T cells differentiate and maintain functional diversity. An accompanying two-part special feature highlights recent advances and explains the gaps in our understanding as well as the potential this research holds for the future.
Access the Web Focus and Special Feature on Dendritic Cells here and read select articles FREE of charge. For more information on Immunology & Cell Biology visit www.nature.com/icb.
