Norfloxacin, a Fluoroquinolone Antibiotic, Inhibits Langerhans Cell-Mediated Th1 and Th2 Cell Development
Background: It is widely acknowledged that Langerhans cells (LCs) play a primary role in the polarization of T helper type 1 (Th1) or T helper type 2 (Th2) immune responses. Our aim was to find fluoroquinolone (“new quinolone”) antibiotics that would inhibit LC-mediated Th2 cell development. Methods...
