Crude extracts of Caenorhabditis elegans suppress airway inflammation in a murine model of allergic asthma.
Epidemiological studies suggest an inverse relationship between helminth infections and allergic disease, and several helminth-derived products have been shown to suppress allergic responses in animals. This study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of a crude extract of Caenorhabditis elegans on...
