Abstract:
Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) is best known for promoting atherosclerosis. In this issue of Immunity, Joo et al. (2014) find that dendritic cells triggered through LOX-1 can directly support plasmablast production via the production of the cytokines APRIL and BAFF.
