Nippostrongylus-Induced Intestinal Hypercontractility Requires IL-4 Receptor Alpha-Responsiveness by T Cells in Mice

Gut-dwelling helminthes induce potent IL-4 and IL-13 dominated type 2 T helper cell (T(H)2) immune responses, with IL-13 production being essential for Nippostrongylus brasiliensis expulsion. This T(H)2 response results in intestinal inflammation associated with local infiltration by T cells and mac...
