Developmental regulation of dendritic cell function.
1998 saw key advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms whereby immature dendritic cells recognise foreign pathogens in tissues and are induced to migrate to secondary lymphoid organs. In particular, there have been some key insights into how dendritic cells subsequently direct the evolution of immune responses by differential expression of co-stimulatory molecules.
