Role of cytokines in resistance to African trypanosomes
The expression and role of cytokines in resistance to experimental <i>Trypanosoma congolense</i> infections in the highly susceptible BALB/c and relatively resistant C57BL/6 mice was studied. Higher levels of IL-4, IL-10 and IFN-ã were detected in the plasma of infected BALB/c than in C5...
