Fasciola hepatica hijacks host macrophage miRNA machinery to modulate early innate immune responses
Abstract Fasciola hepatica, a global worm parasite of humans and their livestock, regulates host innate immune responses within hours of infection. Host macrophages, essential to the first-line defence mechanisms, are quickly restricted in their ability to initiate a classic protective pro-inflammat...
