Regulatory T cells in human lymphatic filariasis: stronger functional activity in microfilaremics.
Infection with filarial parasites is associated with T cell hyporesponsiveness, which is thought to be partly mediated by their ability to induce regulatory T cells (Tregs) during human infections. This study investigates the functional capacity of Tregs from different groups of filarial patients to...
