Quick Overview

BDCM is a B-cell line with dendritic cell-like properties, showing cross-priming and strong antigen-presenting capabilities.

Detailed Summary

BDCM is a B-cell line that exhibits characteristics similar to dendritic cells, including extensive surface projections, cross-priming ability, and strong T cell-stimulating capability. It was derived from a patient with M5a myeloid leukemia and shows unique genetic and functional similarities to dendritic cells. BDCM cells express high levels of HLA-DR and co-stimulatory molecules like CD86, making them effective antigen-presenting cells. They also produce cytokine profiles similar to mature dendritic cells, suggesting potential applications in immunotherapy research. The cell line's ability to cross-prime T cells and its autocrine activation of Stat-1 highlight its relevance in studying immune responses and cancer immunology.
