Abstract excerpt
The resistance of inbred mice to nematode infections varies depending on the extent of protective Th2 responses. Here, we compared two mouse lines differing in resistance to infection with the enteric nematode Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri despite the similar instruction of GATA-3+ T effector cells. Resistant BALB/c mice rapidly recruited high numbers of Th2 cells to the gut within the 1-week time frame...
