Follicular Dendritic Cells (FDC) form a structural network within the lymphoid follicles and are involved in antigen presentation to B cells for generating an immune response and for the maintenance of immunological memory. FDCs are believed to provide signals to B cells to induce their proliferation. In LCMV mediated immunosuppression there is evidence of T-cell dependent destruction of macrophages and follicular dendritic cells. The FDC-M1 antibody recognizes follicular dendritic cells and their dendritic processes. Immunohistochemistry of follicular dendritic cells. Frozen sections of mouse spleen was reacted with the FDC-M1 antibody. Follicular dendritic cells can be identified by the intense brown labeling of their cell membranes. Magnification 20X.
