abstract：:Dendritic cells (DCs) have been shown to be important in the replication of human and simian immunodeficiency viruses (HIV and SIV, respectively) in vivo and in vitro. DCs express CD4 and several chemokine receptors, such as CCR5 and CXCR4, which are important for viral entry. In vivo, DCs are abundant at body surface...
