Myeloid dendritic cells type 2 in allergic asthma
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Myeloid dendritic cells type 2 (mDC2s) are a new subtype of DCs identified in both the circulation and the lung and suggested to have a role in allergic asthma.
METHODS: Circulating mDC2s were enumerated in 19 healthy, 18 atopic nonasthmatic, 18 mild atopic asthmatic, and 16 moderate/severe atopic asthmatic subjects using flow cytometry.
