AB  - Dendritic cells (DCs) are potent antigen-presenting cells (APC) that are 
      important in the initiation and control of cellular immune responses. Commonly 
      used in T cell-stimulation experiments, DCs are typically "matured" in vitro with 
      microbial products or proinflammatory cytokines, and then loaded with antigens 
      from any number of sources, including peptides, whole proteins, cell lysates, 
      RNA, microbes, or killed tumor cells. This unit presents a simple and commonly 
      used method for the generation of mature human dendritic cells--differentiating 
      them from peripheral blood monocytes.
