Dendritic cells: specialized antigen presenting cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Specific tumor cell recognition is required for optimal tumor directed therapy. Lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells are able to recognize tumor targets specifically because LAK cells can distinguish between normal and tumor cells. This study was aimed at analyzing receptor molecules on tumor cells and th...
