Localized Multigene Expression Patterns Support an Evolving Th1/Th2-Like Paradigm in Response to Infections with<i>Toxoplasma gondii</i>and<i>Ascaris suum</i>
21 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
Human infectious diseases have been studied in pigs because the two species have common microbial, parasitic, and zoonotic organisms, but there has been no systematic evaluation of cytokine gene expression in response to infectious agents in porcine species. In this study, pigs were inoculated with two clinically and economically important parasites, Toxoplasma gondii and Ascaris suum, and gene expression in 11...
