abstract：:Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are immunogenic, with the specificity of the immune response provided by the peptides that they chaperone. Binding of cell surface receptors by HSPs is central to the elicitation of the innate and adaptive immune responses obtained after vaccination and also plays a physiologic role in cross...
