Fig. 8: TGF-β1-transporting vesicle generation in human monocytes and modulation of the immune response.
From: Immune modulation by complement receptor 3-dependent human monocyte TGF-β1-transporting vesicles
The human pathogenic fungus Candida albicans as well as human apoptotic cells induce via the complement receptor 3 on monocytes the release of TGF-β1-transporting vesicles which act immune inhibitory and which induce synthesis of TGF-β1 in endothelial cells.
