The third edition of thisvolume is aimed at providing both beginners and more experienced researchers achoice of methods to isolate and analyze dendritic cells(DC). An introductoryreview provides an overview of recent advances in the characterization of DCsubsets in mouse and human. While additional chapters provide methods toculture human and mouse dendritic cells, protocols for the isolation ofdendritic cells, the isolation of dendritic cell progenitors from mouse, andthe purification of dendritic cells from human blood. Written in the highlysuccessful Methods in Molecular Biology series format, chapters includeintroductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials andreagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips ontroubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative andcutting-edge,  Dendritic CellProtocols, Third Edition aims to ensure successful results in the furtherstudy of this vital field.
