PD-1 and PD-1 ligands: from discovery to clinical application.

abstract：:The mature dendritic cell (DC) is considered to be the most potent antigen-presenting cell. Regulation of the DC, particularly its survival, is therefore critical. Mature DC are markedly more sensitive to HLA-DR-mediated apoptosis than immature DC. To further characterize this key survival difference, we compared the ...
