Investigating the impact of dendritic cell-T cell interactions on autocrine complement activation in CD4 T cells

Project

Project Details

In this project, we will investigate how different stimuli including IgG-immune complexes and TLR ligands affect the ability of DCs to influence T cell autocrine complement regulation. This is of relevance to our understanding of how inflammation is propagated in autoimmunity and for vaccination boost strategies.
