Human Dendritic cells (DCs) are immune cells that form part of the mammalian immune system. Their main function is to process antigen material and present it on the surface to other cells of the immune system, thus functioning as antigen-presenting cells. They act as messengers between the innate and adaptive immune systems. Dendritic cells are present in small quantities in tissues that are in contact with the external environment, mainly the skin and the inner lining of the nose, lungs, stomach and intestines. They can also be found in an immature state in the blood. Once activated, they migrate to the lymphoid node where they interact with T cells and B cells to initiate and shape the adaptive immune response.
