Activated dendritic cells (DC) are of key importance for the initiation of primary immune responses and represent promising tools for immunotherapies in humans. Since DNA containing CpG motifs have been described as potent immunostimulatory (IS) adjuvants for murine DC, we here studied maturation an
Shigella flexneri infection of macrophages (MPhi) leads to activation of caspase-1 by the IpaB virulence factor, which induces rapid cell death and release of mature IL-1beta. Here we show that S. flexneri infection of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC) also results in rapid IpaB-dependent
