Message:


I have read many literatures using dendritic cells (especially macrophages) as 
a therapy for inducing peripheral tolerance, does this method seeem 
promising?  I mean as inducing anergy by blocking expression of various 
costimulatory molecules etc... Are there any good websites or recommended 
literatures regarding of this topic?  Thanks.
