Thesis
Innate immune pathways controlling IL-1beta production and adjuvant-induced T helper 17 cell differentiation
- Abstract:
-
Although adjuvants are critical vaccine components, their modes of action are poorly understood. This has hampered the development of novel adjuvants, and as a result there are very few approved for clinical use. Moreover, none of the clinically-approved adjuvants are able to induce T helper 17 (Th17) CD4+ T cell responses. Th17 cells play important roles in host defense against extracellular bacteria, fungi, and some intracellular pathogens, so understanding how to produce Th17...
