Inflammatory Responses Induced by the Filarial Nematode Brugia malayi Are Mediated by Lipopolysaccharide-like Activity from Endosymbiotic Wolbachia Bacteria
The pathogenesis of filarial disease is characterized by acute and chronic inflammation. Inflammatory responses are thought to be generated by either the parasite, the immune response, or opportunistic infection. We show that soluble extracts of the human filarial parasite Brugia malayi can induce p...
