A Single Microorganism Epitope Attenuates the Development of Murine Autoimmune Arthritis: Regulation of Dendritic Cells via the Mannose Receptor

A single epitope of Leishmania analog of the receptors for activated C kinase (LACK) from Leishmania major, the polypeptide LACK156–173, is recognized by Vβ4+/Vα8+ T cells, and activate these cells that drives the subsequent T helper (Th)2 response. This study was undertaken to investigate the thera...
