Impaired local immune response in vitamin A-deficient rats.

abstract：:Thyroid autoantigens require internalization and processing by antigen-presenting cells to induce immune responses. Besides pinocytosis, antigen uptake can be receptor-mediated. The mannose receptor (ManR) has a cysteine rich domain (CR) and eight carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) that bind glycosylated proteins....
