Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Intraepidermal lymphocytes and dendritic cells are two different types of immune cells. Intraepidermal lymphocytes are lymphocytes that reside in the epidermis, while dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that are found in various tissues and migrate to lymph nodes to present antigens to T cells. It is not possible for an intraepidermal lymphocyte to mature into a dendritic cell by phagocytosing an antigen.
