Dendritic cells (DCs) and follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) play important roles in HIV-mediated pathogenesis. Recent studies have defined new DC subsets and shown that DCs in lymphoid mucosa can both harbor virus and stimulate its spread into CD4 + T cells. FDCs harbor unspliced HIV mRNA and immune
Dendritic cells are essential for Th2 differentiation of naı ¨ve CD4 + T cells in response to aeroallergens, and in recent years it has been well established that these cells play a pivotal role in the initiation phase of allergic asthma. Dendritic cells are also crucial for maintaining eosinophilic
