Because of its prominent expression in central nervous system inflammatory pathology by astrocytes, we examined the mechanism of human IP-10 (hIP-10) gene induction by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in astrocytoma cells. When present together, IFN-gamma and
## Abstract Langerhans cells (LC) act as potent antigenβpresenting cells (APC) for primary and secondary T cellβdependent immune responses. LC express several costimulatory and/or adhesion molecules such as B7/BB1, which has been implicated as one of the important determinants for professional APC.
The pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β€ (IL-1β€), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-β£ (TNF-β£), and nitric oxide (NO) can be produced by activated glial cells and play a critical role in various neurological diseases. Using primary co-cultures of rat microglial and astroglial cells, we investigated th
