Successful treatment in allergic, autoimmune, and infectious diseases often requires altering the nature of a detrimental immune response mediated by a particular CD4+ T helper (Th) cell subset. While several factors contribute to the development of CD4+ Thi and Th2 cells, the requirements for switching an established response are not understood. Here we use infection with Leishmania major as a model to investi...
Experimental infections of mice with the protozoan parasite Leishmania major provide an excellent model for defining the conditions required for generation of CD4 ÷ Thl and Th2 cells in vivo. Since interleukin-12 (IL-12) has been implicated in the development of Thl cells, we investigated whether L. major stimulates IL-12 production in vitro or in vivo. Surprisingly, macrophages cultured in vitro failed to prod...
