Receptors for conserved molecular patterns associated with microbial pathogens induce synthesis of co-stimulatory molecules and cytokines in immature dendritic cells (DC), as do antigen-reactive CD4 T helper cells via CD40 signaling. Once activated, antigen-presenting DC may activate CD8 T cell resp
Host defense against intracellular pathogens is thought to require cytotoxic T cells. Recent studies have investigated the impact of host cell lysis and cytokine production by cytotoxic T lymphocytes on the fate of intracellular pathogens. The identification of two mechanisms of lysis induced by cyt
