Helminth secretions induce de novo T cell Foxp3 expression and regulatory function through the TGF-β pathway
Foxp3-expressing regulatory T (T reg) cells have been implicated in parasite-driven inhibition of host immunity during chronic infection. We addressed whether parasites can directly induce T reg cells. Foxp3 expression was stimulated in naive Foxp3(−) T cells in mice infected with the intestinal hel...
