Abstract

How early interactions between innate and adaptive immune cells influence outcomes of acute infections is incompletely understood. In this issue of Immunity, Karunarathne et al. (2016) show that dendritic cells help CD4(+) T helper 1 cell immunity against malaria through PD-L2's competition with PD-L1.
