<p>Dendritic cells play a critical role in antigen-specific immune responses. Materials and methods are provided for treating disease states, including cancer, infectious diseases, autoimmune diseases, transplantation, and allergy by facilitating or inhibiting the migration or activation of a specific subset of antigen-presenting dendritic cells known as plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDC). In particular, methods for treating disease states are provided comprising administration of chemokine receptor agonists and antagonists, alone or in combination with a disease-associated antigen, with or without an activating agent.</p> |
