Abstract excerpt
In mouse models of asthma, therapeutic use of allergen-presenting IL-10-differentiated dendritic cells (DCs) can abrogate airway hyperresponsiveness, and reduce other asthma-related responses to near background. Analogous human DCs can suppress human T cell responses in vitro, but the operative mechanisms are poorly defined. We investigated the ability of IL-10-treated human DCs to induce tolerance among...
