Protective immunity against cutaneous leishmaniasis is dependent on the induction of Th1/Tc1 immune responses resulting in efficient parasite elimination. In this review, the mechanisms leading to protection are discussed with special focus on the role of Leishmania major-infected dendritic cells (DC) in induction of Th1-dependent immunity. Murine strain-dependent differences between DC derived from Leishmania-susceptible as compared to resistant mice are highlighted.
针对皮肤利什曼病的保护性免疫依赖于Th1/Tc1免疫反应的诱导,从而有效清除寄生虫。在这篇综述中,我们将讨论导致保护的机制,特别关注利什曼原虫主要感染的树突状细胞(DC)在诱导Th1依赖性免疫中的作用。文中强调了利什曼原虫易感小鼠与抗性小鼠来源的DC之间的鼠株依赖性差异。
