Abstract:
Dendritic cells (DCs) are a rare population of antigen-presenting cells that initiate immune responses in secondary lymphoid organs. In order to better understand the properties of DC in humans, it is essential to analyze DC subsets directly purified from tissues. Here, we describe a protocol allowing the purification of DC subsets from human tonsils and human lymph nodes.
