Description: The magnitude of immune responses to vaccination
is a critical factor in determining protection from diseases.
We reported that nicotine disrupts the properties
of DCs that are pivotal in the initiation of immune
response to vaccines. Here we investigated whether
TLR agonist(s) could overcome the effects of nicotine
on human DC and DC-NK cross-talk essential
for effector T cell generation… more
