"Dendritic cells in different animal species: an overview".
The comprehension of the immune system and the role of DC in the pathological diseases may contribute to their use in veterinary medicine in the prevention and treatment of many diseases. Currently, most dendritic cell (DC) research occurs in the human and murine model systems on the generation of cells from the bone marrow or peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) cultured in vitro. Despite the lack of available immunological reagents such as antibodies and cytokines, analogous cells have been generated and identified in many different species and reviewed in this study.
