Flt3 Ligand–treated Neonatal Mice Have Increased Innate Immunity Against Intracellular Pathogens and Efficiently Control Virus Infections

Flt-3 ligand (FL), a hematopoetic growth factor, increases the number of dendritic cells (DCs), B cells, and natural killer cells in adult mice but the effect in neonates was unknown.
