Weakened IL-15 Production and Impaired mTOR Activation Alter Dendritic Epidermal T Cell Homeostasis in Diabetic Mice
Abstract Diabetes is associated with impaired wound healing, which may be caused primarily by a deficiency in dendritic epidermal T cells (DETCs). In the epidermis, IL-15, IGF-1, and mTOR are known to regulate the maintenance of DETCs; however, it is unclear how these molecules may intersect to regu...
