Interactions among \kur{Ixodes ricinus} tick saliva, murine dendritic cells and the tick-borne encephalitis virus

Dendritic cells are among the first cells that encounter salivary antigens of blood-feeding arthropods, and are also supposed to be the early targets of tick-borne encephalitis virus, an important human pathogen naturally delivered into host skin via a bite of an infected tick. This thesis has gener...

This thesis has generally focused on studying the impact of tick saliva on dendritic cell biology, and, subsequently, effects of infection with two different tick-borne encephalitis virus strains on dendritic cell maturation, cytokine production, T cell activation and apoptosis in the presence or absence of the tick saliva. 2009 info:eu-repo/semantics/doctoralThesis http://www.nusl.cz/ntk/nusl-44488 cze info:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccess
