Abstract excerpt
All-trans-retinoic acid (RA), a vitamin A metabolite, is beginning to be explored as an immunopharmacologic agent. While its effects on dendritic cells and the induction of regulatory T cells have been recognized, little is known about the effect of RA on dendritic cell-natural killer cell (DC-NK) crosstalk. DC-NK crosstalk is important in directing the innate immune response, as well as subsequent adaptive...
