Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A dendritic cell can respond to a virus that is injected in the body by engulfing and ingesting the virus (option A), stimulating the release of cytokines to suppress viral infection (option B), migrating to the lymph nodes for maturation (option C), and stimulating the maturation of T cells into helper and killer T cells (option D). Therefore, all of these are the potential responses of a dendritic cell against the injected virus.
