Immature mDCs are capable to regulate angiogenesis in the tumorpDCs accumulate preferentially in ascites and their chemoattraction depends on expression of CXCL12pDCs stimulate the generation of IL-10+ T CD8+ suppressor cells and promote angiogenesis through the secretion of IL-8 and TNF-αThe population of tumor-associated pDCs differs functionally from ascitic pDCs and secretes lower levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. This evidence concerns the gene CXCL8 and neoplasm.
