This useful study presents a biologically realistic, large-scale cortical model of the rat's non-barrel somatosensory cortex, investigating synaptic plasticity of excitatory connections under varying ...

Cells can enter a third state only under certain conditions, however, and researchers are still not sure how they can continue to function after the death of the organism.

We have investigated whether dendritic cells genetically modified to express CD40 ligand and pulsed with antigen can trigger B cells to produce antigen-specific antibodies without CD4+ T-cell help.

The FDA’s ODAC mandates phase assessments for NSCLC trials, dendritic cell immunotherapy shows improved survival in pancreatic cancer, and a new blood test for colorectal cancer receives FDA approval.

A new dendritic cell vaccine has shown promising results in extending survival for pancreatic cancer patients by stimulating the immune system to fight tumor cells.

The FDA has granted Fast Track designation to an investigational dendritic cell vaccine for the treatment of pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

A study by researchers at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center suggests that injecting engineered dendritic cells directly into cancerous lung tumors can help promote a stronger ...

Researchers have discovered how short-lived dendritic cells of the immune system form three-dimensional networks, using blood vessels as guides. These networks, regulated by local cytokines, play a ...

As part of the immune system, dendritic cells are essential for fighting body cells that have degenerated or are infected with a virus.

In addition to direct and cross‐presentation, dendritic cells (DCs) can present tumor antigens (TAs) to T cells via a hitherto poorly understood mechanism called “cross‐dressing.” DC cross‐dressing ...
