Pulmonary Conventional Type 1 Langerin-Expressing Dendritic Cells Play a Role in Impairing Early Protective Immune Response against <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> Infection in Mice

Pulmonary Conventional Type 1 Langerin-Expressing Dendritic Cells Play a Role in Impairing Early Protective Immune Response against <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> Infection in Mice

Lung dendritic cells (DC) are powerful antigen-presenting cells constituted by various subpopulations that differ in terms of their function and origin and differentially regulate cell-mediated antifungal immunity. The lung is the primary target organ of <i>Cryptococcus neoformans</i> an...
