Dendritic Cells in Tumor Growth and Endocrine Diseases

  • Chapter
Dendritic Cells in Fundamental and Clinical Immunology

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 329))

Abstract

It is well established that dendritic cells and macrophages play an important role in the defence against tumour cells. Using monoclonal antibodies (moabs) specific for monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells many authors have observed these cells infiltrating neoplastically transformed tissues.
