Abstract excerpt

Enteric infection of mice with reovirus serotype 1 elicits antibody and cytotoxic T-lymphocytes in gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT). This led to the hypothesis that T-helper 1 (Th1) and T-helper 2 (Th2) responses develop in GALT. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactions on RNA from P...
