We also made an evaluation on the relationship between TIM-4 and DCs in human nasal tissues and found that the colocalization of TIM-4 and CD11c+ DCs in the CRSwNP, and TIM4+/CD11c+ cells are less than the TIM-4+/CD68+ cells in CRSwNP. The gene discussed is CD68; the disease is chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.
