Depletion of dendritic cells enhances innate anti-bacterial host defense through modulation of phagocyte homeostasis.

Depletion of dendritic cells enhances innate anti-bacterial host defense through modulation of phagocyte homeostasis.

Dendritic cells (DCs) as professional antigen-presenting cells play an important role in the initiation and modulation of the adaptive immune response.
