Human Lung dendritische cellen: ruimtelijke verdeling en fenotypische Identification in Endobronchiale biopten middels immunohistochemie en flowcytometrie
Human Lung dendritische cellen: ruimtelijke verdeling en fenotypische Identification in Endobronchiale biopten middels immunohistochemie en flowcytometrie
Lung-resident immune cells, including dendritic cells (DCs) in humans, are critical for defense against inhaled pathogens and allergens. However, due to the scarcity of human lung tissue, studies are limited. This work presents protocols to process human mucosal endobronchial biopsies for studying lung DCs using immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry.
