This chapter describes techniques for the isolation of dendritic cell-enriched single-cell suspensions from the lamina propria (LP) of both small and large intestine and from Peyer's patches (PP). This technique can also be used to obtain intestinal macrophage-enriched populations. The characterization of an assay system, the allogeneic mixed leukocyte reaction (MLR), is also described.
