%X The immune system is the body's defense system. In order for cancer to occur, the immune system must have failed. Dendritic cells are found in all tissues of the body, and many of them began as macrophages. The first dendritic cell discovered is found throughout the skin and is called a Langerhan's cell. Dendritic cells are a specific type of "antigen-presenting cell." They attach themselves to antigens and alter them in a manner that will allow T-lymphocytes to recognize them. The T-lymphocytes then become sensitized to that specific antigen and attack any cell carrying that exact antigen.
