Regulation of Intestinal Immune Responses through TLR Activation: Implications for Pro- and Prebiotics.

abstract：:Dendritic cells are considered as the main coordinators of both mucosal and systemic immune responses, thus playing a determining role in shaping the outcome of effector cell responses. However, it is still uncovered how primary human monocyte-derived DC (moDC) populations drive the polarization of helper T (Th) cells...
