Indications of the protective role of natural killer cells in human cutaneous leishmaniasis in an area of endemicity.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jun 1998

Maasho K, Sanchez F, Schurr E, Hailu A, Akuffo H

Abstract excerpt

The role of natural versus acquired immunity to Leishmania aethiopica infection in humans is the focus of our studies. We found in previous studies that mononuclear cells from nonexposed healthy Swedish donors responded to Leishmania antigen stimulation by proliferation and gamma interferon production. The main cell type responding was CD3- CD16/56+ natural killer (NK) cells. These findings led us to suggest that...
