Abstract excerpt
ST2 protein is a soluble splicing variant of ST2L protein, which is the receptor for interleukin-33 (IL-33). Previously, we reported that soluble ST2 suppressed the signal transduction of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cytokine production in monocytic cells. To investigate whether or not this inhibitory effect occurs in dendritic cells, which are the key players in innate and adaptive immunity, human...
