Six costs of immunity to gastrointestinal nematode infections.

Parasite immunology - 1 Feb 2008

Colditz I G

Abstract excerpt

The strength of the immune response and the outcome of the interaction of a host with a parasite are influenced by genetic and phenotypic characteristics of both parties, and by environmental variables. Allocation of host resources to immune defence reduces resources available for other life-history traits. This review identifies six potential costs to the host from immune activation. The costs are likely to be...
