TLDR
It is demonstrated that the beta-glucan receptor Dectin-1, a yeast binding C type lectin known to synergize with TLR2 to induce TNF alpha and IL-12, can also promote synthesis of IL-2 andIL-10 through phosphorylation of the membrane proximal tyrosine in the cytoplasmic domain and recruitment of Syk kinase.

Regulation and Functions of the IL-10 Family of Cytokines in Inflammation and Disease

TL;DR: The IL-10 family of cytokines consists of nine members that can promote innate immune responses from tissue epithelia to limit the damage caused by viral and bacterial infections and facilitate the tissue-healing process in injuries caused by infection or inflammation.

Generation of large numbers of dendritic cells from mouse bone marrow cultures supplemented with granulocyte/macrophage colony-stimulating factor.

TL;DR: The methodology for inducing dendritic cell growth that was recently described for mouse blood now has been modified to MHC class II- negative precursors in marrow, and this feature should prove useful for future molecular and clinical studies of this otherwise trace cell type.

Production of high titer helper-free retroviruses by transient transfection

TL;DR: In this article, a method for producing high-titer, helper-free infectious retroviruses is disclosed which employs a novel strategy that uses transient transfection of new retroviral producer cell lines, ecotropic line BOSC 23 and amphotropic line CAK 8.
