The nurse's finding is validated by the fact that dendritic cells (DCs) play a crucial role in bridging both the innate and adaptive immune systems. Dendritic cells are antigen-presenting cells that capture, process, and present antigens to T cells, thus initiating an adaptive immune response. This connection between innate and adaptive immunity is essential for an effective immune response against pathogen
