CD71+ erythroid suppressor cells impair adaptive immunity against Bordetella pertussis

Abstract Infant’s immune system cannot control infection or respond to vaccination as efficiently as older individuals, a phenomenon that has been attributed to immunological immaturity. Recently, we challenged this notion and proposed the presence of actively immunosuppressive and physiologically e...
