Enhanced immunogenicity of aldehyde-bearing antigens: a possible link between innate and adaptive immunity.

abstract：:Cytokines are the main agents known to regulate Th1 / Th2 commitment, where they may operate through paracrine activity within clusters of T cells gathered around dendritic cells (DC). An in vitro system is used here to test this possibility, using clusters around DC composed of naive TCR-transgenic ovalbumin peptide ...
