Mature DCs cocultured with ovarian cancer ascites or supernatants of SKOV3 and CAOV3 differentiated into a group of macrophagelike cells that exhibited increased expression of surface marker CD14+CD1a-, decreased expression of CD83, poorer T-cell costimulatory properties, and greater endocytosis of fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran in vitro. Interleukin 10 but not LIF mediated this differentiation pathway.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
