luuüdist pärinev põhiliselt membranoossete jätketega rakk, mis esineb enamikus organites ja epiteelkudedes
Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells (also known as accessory cells) of the mammalian immune system. Their main function is to process antigen material and present it on the cell surface to the T cells of the immune system. They act as messengers between the innate and the adaptive immune systems. They originate from bone marrow and are present in almost all epithelial tissues and organs.
