Regulatory T Cells Enhance Susceptibility to Experimental Trypanosoma Congolense Infection Independent of Mouse Genetic Background

BACKGROUND: BALB/c mice are highly susceptible while C57BL/6 are relatively resistant to experimental Trypanosoma congolense infection. Although regulatory T cells (Tregs) have been shown to regulate the pathogenesis of experimental T. congolense infection, their exact role remains controversial. We...
