Costimulation-mediated Rescue of Superantigen-activated T cells in an Animal Model of Kawasaki Disease

Lactobacillus casei cell wall extract (LCWE)- induced coronary arteritis in mice models Kawasaki disease (KD). LCWE injections consist of T-cell dependent factors that expand superantigen (SAg)-activated T-cell receptor (TCR) Vβ6+ cells, and T-cell independent factors (i.e. TLR2 activity) that local...
