A secreted <i>Echinococcus multilocularis</i> activin A homologue promotes regulatory T cell expansion

2019-04-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Alveolar echinococcosis (AE), caused by the metacestode larval stage of the fox-tapeworm Echinococcus multilocularis , is a chronic zoonosis associated with significant modulation of the host immune response. A role of regulatory T-cells (Treg) in generating an immunosuppressive environment around the metacestode during chronic disease has been reported, but the molecular m...
