The molecular mechanisms involved in host pathogen interactions at mucosal surfaces needs to be better understood in order to develop immune-mediated methods of protection against pathogens. Cholera t
The gastrointestinal mucosa harbors the majority of the body's CD4(+) cells and appears to be uniquely susceptible to human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. We undertook this study to
BackgroundCurrently, sufficient data exist to support the use of lactobacilli as candidates for the development of new oral targeted vaccines. To this end, we have previously shown that Lactobacillus
This experiment was designed to explore the transcriptional programs of ?dT17 and ?dT1 cells isolated from the lamina propria and peripheral lymph nodes. For this purpose, we sorted intestinal ?dT17 (
