Cytomorphological characteristics of dendritic cells

Cytology and Genetics 2006, v 40, number 1, 66-69

Five morphological degrees of maturity of dendritic cells induced from monocytes of peripheral blood in oncological patients have been revealed using originally prepared and stained cytological preparations. Cytological examination of dendritic cells can be used for their identification in production of dendritic cell antitumor vaccines.
