Category:GO:0097026 ! dendritic cell dendrite assembly
name: dendritic cell dendrite assembly
namespace: biological_process
def: "Formation of dendrites, branched cellular projections (or cytoplasmic extension) that are extended from the surface of a dendritic immune cell, and which enable the cell to sample luminal pathogens and increase the surface area for antigen presentation to T cells." [CL:0000451, GOC:BHF, PMID:12200351]
comment: Note that dendrites of dendritic cells should not be confused with neuronal cell dendrites, which process electrical signals.
synonym: "dendritic extension" BROAD []
