Effect of Osteopontin Alleles on β-Glucan-Induced Granuloma Formation in the Mouse Liver

The granuloma formation is a host defense response against persistent irritants. Osteopontin is centrally involved in the formation of granulomas. Three osteopontin alleles, designated a, b, and c, have been found in mice. Here we used a murine model of zymosan (β-glucan)-induced granuloma formation...
