Ralph M. Steinman's work on dendritic cells began in 1973 when he described and named the cells. Reminiscent of the late Justice Ginsburg's perspective that enduring change happens not suddenly but one step at a time, the paper (1973. J. Exp. Med.https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.137.5.1142) was notably the first step in many steps of important work that revealed the nature of dendritic cells.
拉尔夫·斯坦曼(Ralph M. Steinman)于 1973 年开始研究树突状细胞,当时他对这些细胞进行了描述并为之命名。这让人不禁想起已故大法官金斯伯格(Ginsburg)的观点,即持久的变化不是突然发生的,而是一步一个脚印。这篇论文(1973 年,《实验医学杂志》,https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.137.5.1142)是重要工作的众多步骤中的第一步,该工作揭示了树突状细胞的本质。
