MIF Synergizes with Trypanosoma cruzi Antigens to Promote Efficient Dendritic Cell Maturation and IL-12 Production via p38 MAPK
<p>Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) has been found to be involved in host resistance to several parasitic infections. To determine the mechanisms of the MIF-dependent responses to <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i>, we investigated host resistance in MIF-/- mice (on the BALB/c ba...
