Dendritic cells have attracted great interest from researchers as they may be used as targets of tumor immune evasion mechanisms. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the dendritic cells ...

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are important regulators of the immune system and key players in tumor-induced suppression of T-cell responses. CD14+HLA-DR-/low MDSC have been detected in a great number of malignancies, ...

Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is a systemic mycosis caused by fungi from the genus Paracoccidioides in Latin America. PCM-patients (PCM-p) are classified as having acute/subacute or chronic (CF) clinical forms. CF is ...

Abstract Background Lichen planus (LP) is a chronic mucocutaneous inflammatory disease. Evaluating the balance between regulatory T cells and effector T cells could be ...

We have previously shown that human myeloid dendritic cells treated with purified rotavirus induce an allogenic Th1 response. To determine if rotavirus in the context of an intestinal microenvironment modulates the function ...

Pathogens can cause inflammation when inoculated into the skin. The vector‐transmitted protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi induces poor cellular‐infiltration and disseminates, causing high mortality in the experimental ...

The graft-versus-host disease is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients who have undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Aiming at contributing to the understanding of the role of myeloid and ...
