IL-17 signalling is critical for controlling subcutaneous adipose tissue dynamics and parasite burden during chronic Trypanosoma brucei infection
2022-09-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> In the skin, Trypanosoma brucei colonises the subcutaneous white adipose tissue (scWAT) and harbours a pool of parasites that are proposed to be competent for forward transmission. The interaction between parasites, adipose tissue, and the local immune system is likely to drive the adipose tissue wasting and weight loss observed in cattle and humans infected with T. brucei . However, mechanisti...
