Enhanced upper genital tract pathologies by blocking Tim-3 and PD-L1 signaling pathways in mice intravaginally infected with Chlamydia muridarum

BACKGROUND: Although Tim-3 & PD-L1 signaling pathways play important roles in negatively regulating immune responses, their roles in chlamydial infection have not been evaluated. METHODS: Neutralization antibodies targeting Tim-3 and PD-L1 were used to treat mice. Following an intravaginal infec...
