Abstract excerpt
In a previous study we demonstrated that NK/LAK effectors are quickly induced in the peritoneal cavity of CD2F1 mice by a booster dose with inactivated Candida albicans (CA) cells or by the purified cell wall mannoprotein (MP), for a long time after CA sensitization. In this study we investigated the immunologic nature and kinetics of early events of the booster phenomenon. Intraperitoneal inoculation of CA in...
