Differential Changes in Expression of Intestinal Antimicrobial Peptide Genes During Ascaris lumbricoides Infection in Zambian Adults Do Not Respond to Helminth Eradication

Background. Intestinal helminthiasis modulates immune responses to vaccines and environmental allergens. To explore the impact on intestinal host defense, we assessed expression of antimicrobial peptide genes, together with T cell subset markers and cytokines, in patients with ascariasis before and...
