Effect of aging and oral tolerance on dendritic cell function

Effect of aging and oral tolerance on dendritic cell function

Oral tolerance can be induced in some mouse strains by gavage or spontaneous ingestion of dietary antigens. In the present study, we determined the influence of aging and oral tolerance on the secretion of co-stimulatory molecules by dendritic cells (DC), and on the ability of DC to induce prolifera...
