| Abstract | Dendritic cells (DCs) are among the most important professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that participate in various biological activities in mammals. However, evidence of the existence of DCs in teleost fish and other lower vertebrates remains limited. In this study, phenotypic and functional characteristics of teleost DCs were described in a zebrafish model. An improved method to efficiently enrich DCs was established. Immunofluorescence staining revealed that the surface phenotypic hallmarks of mammalian DCs, including MHC-II, CD80/86, CD83, and CD209, were distributed on the surfaces of zebrafish DCs (DrDCs). Functional analysis results showed that DrDCs could initiate antigen-specific CD4(+) T cell activation, in which MHC-II, CD80/86, CD83, and CD209 are implicated. Hence, teleost DCs exhibit conserved immunophenotypes and functions similar to those of their mammalian counterparts. Our findings contributed to the current understanding of the evolutionary history of DCs and the DC-regulatory mechanisms of adaptive immunity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
