Answer :

A dendritic cell is a specific type of white blood cell (shaped like a tree) that engulfs invading microbes and activates lymphocytes.

A particular class of immune cells that can be found in tissues, including the skin, stimulates the immune system by exposing other immune system cells to antigens on its surface. An antigen-presenting cell and a type of phagocyte are both dendritic cells.

Cytokines and other substances produced by dendritic cells aid in the activation and differentiation of B lymphocytes. DCs located in the germinal center of lymph nodes appear to support B cell memory by generating many antibody-antigen complexes after an initial antibody response has occurred as a result of an invading organism.
