SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
Dendritic cells are vital to induce potent anti-viral immune responses. On the one hand they are able to mount potent antiviral immune responses, and on the other hand several viruses, including HIV-1, use DC as a vector to be transferred from the periphery to the lymph nodes where they infect their prime target.
