NKT cell stimulation with α-galactosylceramide results in a block of Th17 differentiation after intranasal immunization in mice.
In a previous study we demonstrated that intranasal (i.n.) vaccination promotes a Th17 biased immune response. Here, we show that co-administration of a pegylated derivative of α-galactosylceramide (αGCPEG) with an antigen, even in the presence of Th17-polarizing compounds, results in a strong block...
