Th2 Cell-Intrinsic Hypo-Responsiveness Determines Susceptibility to Helminth Infection
The suppression of protective Type 2 immunity is a principal factor driving the chronicity of helminth infections, and has been attributed to a range of Th2 cell-extrinsic immune-regulators. However, the intrinsic fate of parasite-specific Th2 cells within a chronic immune down-regulatory environmen...
