Activation of dendritic cells: translating innate into adaptive immunity
... Possible signals involved in innate dendritic cell activation. DCs could sense the presence of a potential pathogen via detection of PAMPs (exogenous signals) or infection-induced alterations in self-markers (endogenous signals). Either type of signal may be detected by DCs directly or indirectly. T ...
