Low CD40 Expression Levels in Infantum-Infected Bone Marrow Dendritic Cells Evoke Regulatory Responses by Down-Regulating Interleukin-12 Production: Role of ERK1/2
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a pivotal role in promoting resistance to leishmaniasis, both by activating CD4 + T cells and endorsing their differentiation into Th1 cells by producing interleukin (IL)-12. High level of IL-12 production, a decisive component of the DC maturation, requires not only micro...
