Mucosal Dendritic Cells

Iwasaki, Akiko·2007·Annual Review of Immunology

Abstract

The internal surfaces of the human body are covered by distinct types of epithelial cells and mucus-secreting cells. The mucosal surfaces serve many vital functions, such as respiration (nasal passage and lung), absorption (gastrointestinal tract), excretion (lung, urinary tract, large intestine), and reproduction (reproductive tract). In performing these functions, the host is inevitably exposed to environmental antigens, food particles, commensal flora, and pathogens. Mucosal surfaces contain specialized dendritic cells (DCs) capable of sensing these external stimuli and mounting appropriate local responses depending on the nature of the elements they encounter. In the absence of pathogens, mucosal DCs either ignore the antigen or induce regulatory responses. Upon recognition of microorganisms that invade the mucosal barrier, mucosal DCs mount robust protective immunity. This review highlights progress in our understanding of how mucosal DCs process external information and direct appropriate responses by mobilizing various cells of the innate and adaptive immune systems to achieve homeostasis and protection.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
