Publication: Isolation of Mouse Dendritic Cell Subsets and Macrophages from the Skin.

Published in: Methods Mol Biol 2016 ; 1423(): 129-37

Authors: Malosse C, Henri S

Summary

The improvement of dendritic cell subset isolation from tissues and the use of appropriate surface markers allowed to decipher their heterogeneity but also allowed to unravel some specific functions that are valuable for vaccine design as well as for a better understanding of the in situ pathophysiology upon infection. Here, we describe the procedures to extract those cells from the skin and to analyze them by flow cytometry using a combination of appropriate surface markers allowing further transcriptomic analysis and functional assays.
