Active Trachoma Is Associated with Increased Conjunctival Expression ofIL17Aand Profibrotic Cytokines

13 Sept 2011

Abstract excerpt

The immunological basis of scarring trachoma is not well understood. It is unclear whether it is driven primarily through cell-mediated adaptive or epithelial-cell-derived innate responses. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of the inflammatory and fibrogenic mediators which may be involved. We conducted a cross-sectional survey of children living in an untreated trachoma-endemic...
