Abstract excerpt
Urban particulate matter (UPM) air pollution and vitamin D deficiency are detrimentally associated with respiratory health. This is hypothesized to be due in part to regulation of IL-17A, which UPM is reported to promote. Here, we used a myeloid dendritic cell (DC)-memory CD4+ T cell co-culture system to characterize UPM-driven IL-17A+ cells, investigate the mechanism by which UPM-primed DCs promote this...
