Tumor necrosis factor receptor family costimulation increases regulatory T-cell activation and function via NF-κB.

abstract：:To further define DNA immunization as a model for anti-DNA production, we investigated the cellular requirements for this response in mice immunized with single-stranded DNA from E. coli. The anti-DNA responses of genetically immune-deficient mice and congenic controls were measured by ELISA after immunization with E....
