Platelet-activating factor and macrophages. I. Evidence for the release from rat and mouse peritoneal macrophages and not from mastocytes.

abstract：:Target cells expressing influenza virus hemagglutinin (HA) could be recognized by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) in conjunction with the murine major histocompatibility complex class I antigen, H-2Kd, when both antigens were encoded by recombinant vaccinia virus. This recognition occurred if HA and H-2Kd were encoded b...

abstract：:IL-12 and IL-4, respectively, dominate Th1 versus Th2 polarization. Additionally IL-4 can inhibit IL-12 p40 production in DC. Here we show that macrophages respond to bacterial CpG-DNA with IL-12 p40 production in an IL-4-sensitive manner. Analysis of the molecular mechanism of this inhibition shows that IL-4 acts by ...
