Lymphoid organs of mice. V. Purification of spleen dendritic cells, new surface markers, and maintenance in vitro.
TL;DR: In this paper, Spleen cell suspensions were floated on dense bovine plasma albumin (BPA) columns, and the low density fraction was adhered to glass.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Observations suggest that interferon-gamma can mediate certain manifestations of delayed-type hypersensitivity or cell-mediated immunity in vivo, and that recombinant interferons should be tested for possible therapeutic effects in certain nonviral infectious diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
A monoclonal antibody specific for mouse dendritic cells
TL;DR: It is concluded that 33D1 Ab detects a stable and specific DC antigen and can be used to monitor DC content in complex lymphoid mixtures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lymphokine enhances the expression and synthesis of Ia antigens on cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages.
TL;DR: M phi MHC products serve primarily as recognition sites for previously sensitized T cells, thereby enhancing T cell-mediated M phi activation, as previously described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunologic properties of purified epidermal Langerhans cells. Distinct requirements for stimulation of unprimed and sensitized T lymphocytes.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the maturation of stimulatory function within the dendritic cell lineage represents an important control point in the induction phase of cell- mediated immunity.
