Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of bronchiolitis in infants. During the course of RSV infection, predominant T helper cell (TH) 2 response is associated with disease progression, whereas predominant TH1 reaction provides convalescence. Interleukin (IL)-18 plays an important role in adjusting the TH1/TH2 immune response to viral infections. Thus, we tested the hypothesis that...
