Human Dendritic Cells Exhibit a Pronounced Type I IFN Signature following Leishmania major Infection That Is Required for IL-12 Induction
8 May 2014
Abstract excerpt
Leishmania major-infected human dendritic cells (DCs) exhibit a marked induction of IL-12, ultimately promoting a robust Th1-mediated response associated with parasite killing and protective immunity. The host cell transcription machinery associated with the specific IL-12 induction observed during L. major infection remains to be thoroughly elucidated. In this study, we used Affymetrix GeneChip (Affymetrix) to...
