Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Hand eczema, which is frequently caused by delayed-type allergy, is treated with 9-cis-retinoic acid (9cisRA). However, knowledge on how 9cisRA modulates skin immunity is sparse. OBJECTIVE: As dendritic cells (DCs) are central in the pathogenesis of contact allergy, we investigated 9cisRA modulation of DC function in murine contact hypersensitivity (CHS). METHODS: 9cisRA-differentiated DCs...
