The intestinal immune system must elicit robust immunity against harmful pathogens but restrain immune responses directed against commensal microbes and dietary antigens. The mechanisms that maintain this dichotomy are poorly understood. Here we describe a population of CD11b+F4/80+CD11câ?? macroph...
The goal of this project is to identify genes preferentially expressed in inflammatory macrophages as compared with control macrophages. inflammatory macrophage vs. control macrophage
Mouse small intestine intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) that express a ab TCR and CD8aa homodimers are an enigmatic T cell subset, as their specificity and in vivo function remain to be defined. To gain insight into the nature of these cells, we performed global gene expression profiling using micr...
