Summary of Biotechnology Doctoral Thesis: Investigation on the regulatory role of A20 and molecular mechanisms involved in controlling dendritic cell physiology

The objectives of the thesis: Investigate the role of A20 in regulating four physiological functions of DCs including maturation, cytokine secretion, migration and apoptosis. Investigate the effect of A20 on the regulating three molecular signals including NF-κB, STAT1 and STAT3 related to the physiological process of DCs.
