Selective increase in blood dendritic cell antigen-3-positive dendritic cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid in allergic patients.

abstract：:Sea star factor (SSF) harvested from the echinoderm Asterias forbesi celomocytes is a potent inhibitor of the primary immune response to T-dependent antigens and also suppresses concanavalin-A-induced mitogenesis. We have isolated and purified a basic protein from this source which has a molecular weight of approximat...
