Life span of Dendritic Cells.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dendritic_cell

Activated macrophages have a lifespan of only a few days though new evidence suggest that it could be extended to weeks rather than days.The lifespan of activated dendritic cells, while somewhat varying according to type and origin, is of a similar order of magnitude, but immature dendritic cells seem to be able to exist in an inactivated state for much longer.
