Abstract

Dendritic cells are the strongest professional antigen-presenting cells. Helminth infection could promote maturation of immature dendritic cells, induce Th2-type immune responses, and inhibit the normal function of dendritic cells which is closely associated with the immune evasion. This paper reviews the role of dendritic cells in host immunity against helminth infections.
