Runx proteins mediate protective immunity against Leishmania donovani infection by promoting CD40 expression on dendritic cells.

The level of CD40 expression on dendritic cells (DCs) plays a decisive role in disease protection during Leishmania donovani (LD) infection. However, current understanding of the molecular regulation of CD40 expression remains elusive. Using molecular, cellular and functional approaches, we identifi...
