Dendritic-cell control of pathogen-driven T-cell polarization

Key Points Pathogens initiate adaptive immunity by activating immature dendritic cells (DCs) that mature into immuno-stimulatory effector cells and provide naive T cells with first, antigen that stimulates T cells with relevant T-cell receptors (TCRs); second, co-stimulation, which prevents the deve...
