In the Prophase stage everything becomes more dense and genetic material should become more evident. Also spindle formation may be evident depending on how well the cell was prepared. The nucleus may be disappearing at this point. In the Interphase stage, chromatin has not yet condensed and chromosomes are not visible. This is just the growth and replication stage. The nucleus should still be evident at this point, but genetic material inside will look stringy.

I know the basis of how dendritic cells work in the innate and adaptive immunity with regards to inflammation. However, I was hoping some one would break down the processes in a very detailed form (including all cells involved, activation, chemokines, cytokines and anything else involved). Also I was hoping someone could explain the exact mechanism at which steroids inhibit or limit dendritic cells. Thanks in advance, AJC
