Continuous administration of soluble protein antigen to BALB/c mice inhibits the development of Th1 and induces selective differentiation of Th2 cells. Here we show that interleukin (IL)-12, administered together with soluble protein through a mini-osmotic pump implanted subcutaneously, not only pre
Chronic progression of autoimmune disease is accompanied by the acquisition of autoreactivity to new self-determinants. Recent evidence indicates that this process, commonly referred to as determinant spreading, may be pathogenic for chronicity. Our studies on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelit
IL-12 initiates the development of cell-mediated immunity by promoting the differentiation of naive T cells into the Th1 phenotype, and is essential in the development of a Th1 immune response to the intracellular protozoan parasite, Leishmania major. The present study investigated whether IL-12 is
