Planteome: Term Details for "dendritic cell differentiation" (GO:0097028)

Accession: GO:0097028
Name: dendritic cell differentiation
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: None
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The process in which a precursor cell type acquires the specialized features of a dendritic cell. A dendritic cell is a leukocyte of dendritic lineage specialized in the uptake, processing, and transport of antigens to lymph nodes for the purpose of stimulating an immune response via T cell activation. Source: CL:0000451, GOC:pr
Comment: Note that immunologists typically use the word 'maturation' to refer to dendritic cells undergoing the process that GO describes as 'cell differentiation'.
