Proportions of CD4+ memory T cells are altered in individuals chronically infected with Schistosoma haematobium
Characterisation of protective helminth acquired immunity in humans or experimental models has focused on effector responses with little work conducted on memory responses. Here we show for the first time, that human helminth infection is associated with altered proportions of the CD4+ memory T cell...
