Abstract excerpt
CXCR3 and its ligands are important for the trafficking of activated CD4(+) T(H)1 T cells, CD8(+) T cells, and natural killer cells during inflammation. Recent functional studies demonstrate a more diverse role of CXCR3 in inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system (CNS). We examined the impact of CXCR3 on a less complex interferon-γ-dependent, type 1 cell-mediated immune response in the CNS, induced in...
