CD8α[superscript +] Dendritic Cells Are the Critical Source of Interleukin-12 that Controls Acute Infection by Toxoplasma gondii Tachyzoites

CD8α[superscript +] dendritic cells (DCs) are important in vivo for cross-presentation of antigens derived from intracellular pathogens and tumors. Additionally, secretion of interleukin-12 (IL-12) by CD8α[superscript +] DCs suggests a role for these cells in response to Toxoplasma gondii antigens,...
