Dendritic cells are specialized antigen-presenting cells that are necessary for inducing immunity and regulating immune tolerance. Understanding how these cells regulate adaptive immune responses has aided the development of a number of novel immunotherapies. In this article, Comabella and colleagues provide an overview of dendritic cell function and evaluate the potential of these therapies to treat multiple sclerosis.
