A subset of human plasmacytoid dendritic cells expresses CD8α upon exposure to herpes simplex virus type 1

Classical and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (DC) play important roles in the defense against murine and human infections with herpes simplex virus (HSV). So far, CD8α expression has only been reported for murine DC. CD8α+ DC have prominent cross-presenting activities, which are enhanced by murine CD8...
