Controlling immunity at dendritic cell and T cell level by host, pathogens, and as therapeutics

Research output: PhD ThesisPhd-Thesis - Research and graduation internal

Abstract

A balance between immune activation and inhibition is essential to attack and eliminate pathogens whilst protecting against harmful effects on the host. To prevent ineffective or excessive immune responses, activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells is controlled at different levels. Here, we have investigated how the host as well as pathogens affect immune responses by DCs and T cells
