Summary. Bacillus anthracis possesses three primary virulence factors: capsule, lethal toxin (LT), and edema toxin (ET). Dendritic cells (DCs) are critical to innate and acquired immunity and represent potential targets for these factors. We examined the ability of B. anthracis spores and bacilli to stimulate human monocyte-derived DC (MDDC), primary myeloid DC (mDC), and plasmacytoid DC (pDC) cytokine secretion.
