On the cover: Transcriptional response of human DC to infection with Listeria monocytogenes. Heat map displays expression of genes, associated with inhibitory or stimulatory function in immature DC (immDC), stimulatory mature DC (matDC), and inhibitory DC, matured with PGE2 (PGE2DC) or infected with L. monocytogenes (infDC). Low level (blue) and high level (red) expression, respectively. Popov, A., J. Driesen, Z. Abdullah, C. Wickenhauser, M. Beyer, S. Debey-Pascher, T. Saric, S. Kummer, O. Takikawa, E. Domann, T. Chakraborty, M. Krönke, O. Utermöhlen, and J. L. Schultze. 2008. Infection of myeloid dendritic cells with Listeria monocytogenes leads to the suppression of T cell function by multiple inhibitory mechanisms. J. Immunol. 181: 4976–4988.
