Dendritic Cell Research

Dendritic cells (DC) are antigen-presenting cells and key regulators of the immune system. See MoreThey process and present antigens to naïve T cells, secrete cytokines that direct naïve T cells towards different types of T helper cells, promote differentiation and maturation of B cells, and maintain intrathymic and peripheral tolerance. For a convenient source of cells, STEMCELL Technologies offers frozen primary human dendritic cells¹ isolated from peripheral blood. Thawed dendritic cells are viable, functional and ready for use in downstream assays. Alternatively, we also offer fresh^1,2 peripheral blood and leuko paks for further processing and dendritic cell isolation.
