Abstract excerpt
Adipose tissue derived chronic inflammation is a critical component of obesity induced type II diabetes. Major histocompatibility complex II (MHCII) mediated T cell activation within adipose tissue is one mechanism that contributes to this phenotype. However, the contribution of dendritic cells as professional antigen presenting cells in adipose issue has not previously been explored. Using ItgaxCre x MHCIIfl/fl...
