Monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells reflect tuberculosis severity and are influenced by cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors.

abstract：:Dendritic cells (DC) are professional antigen-presenting cells that are used in vaccine approaches to cancer. Classically, mature monocyte-derived DC are generated in vitro in the presence of interleukin (IL)-4, granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor, and inflammatory cytokines (G4-DC). Recently, it has been...
