Immunostimulatory properties of dendritic cells after Leishmania donovani infection using an in vitro model of liver microenvironment.
BACKGROUND: Recent advances demonstrated that liver dendritic cells (DCs) promote immunologic hyporesponsiveness that may contribute to hepatic tolerance. Although there has been significant work on the phenotypic and functional roles of such DCs, the impact of liver microenvironment on the immune p...
