Keratinocytes are differentiated skin cells found in the outermost layer of the epidermis. Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that play important roles in the adaptive immune response.
In addition to keratinocytes, the <em>stratum spinosum</em> also contains another epidermal cell type called epidermal DENDRITIC cells that help to fight infection.
The s<em>tratum spinosum</em><em> </em>is an epidermal skin layer between the <em>stratum granulosum </em>and<em> stratum basale</em>.
Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that are capable of processing harmful antigens in order to present them on the cell surface to the T cells of the immune system.
