Different subsets of dendritic cells (DCs) appear to play a role in determining the specific cytokines secreted by T helper (Th) cells. A model is proposed that links together factors such as the pathogen, microenvironment, DCs and T cells in a mechanism that results in a flexible determination of T-cell polarization.
不同亚群的树突状细胞(DCs)似乎在决定辅助性T(Th)细胞分泌的特定细胞因子方面发挥作用。本文提出了一个模型,该模型将病原体、微环境、DCs和T细胞等因素以一种机制联系起来,这种机制能够灵活地决定T细胞极化。
