Two waves of antigen‐containing dendritic cells <i>in vivo</i> in experimental <i>Leishmania major</i> infection
25 Feb 2004
Abstract excerpt
Dendritic cells (DC) can induce Th1 cell differentiation by producing IL-12. In experimental infection with Leishmania major, DC could differently respond to infection and induce Th1 cells in C57BL/6 but not BALB/c mice, and thus determine the resistance or susceptibility of these mice. We characterized L. major antigen-containing DC in vivo in draining lymph nodes of both strains. Conventional experimental...
