Expression data from cardiac CD11c+MHC II+ cells

We previously reported that a synthetic Nod1 ligand, FK565, induced coronary arteritis in mice similar to Kawasaki disease. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this site-specific inflammation have remained elusive. In this study, we found that CD11c+MHC class II+ cells accumulated in the heart of FK565-treated mice prior to arteritis development.
