Helminth parasites are masters at manipulating host immune responses, using an array of
sophisticated mechanisms. One of the major mechanisms enabling helminths to establish …

Helminth parasites are complex metazoans that belong to different taxonomic families but
that collectively share the capacity to downregulate the host immune response directed …

Helminths are masterful immunoregulators. A characteristic feature of helminth infection is a
Th2-dominated immune response, but stimulation of immunoregulatory cell populations …

Helminth parasite infections are associated with a battery of immunomodulatory
mechanisms that affect all facets of the host immune response to ensure their persistence …

Helminths are master regulators of host immune responses utilising complex mechanisms to
dampen host protective Th2‐type responses and favour long‐term persistence. Such …

Immune regulation by parasites is a global concept that includes suppression, diversion,
and conversion of the host immune response to the benefit of the pathogen. While many …

Helminths are extraordinarily successful parasites due to their ability to modulate the host
immune response. They have evolved a spectrum of immunomodulatory molecules that are …

Epidemiological and interventional human studies, as well as experiments in animal
models, strongly indicate that helminth parasitic infections can confer protection from …

Parasitic helminths have coevolved with humans over millennia, intricately refining and
developing an array of mechanisms to suppress or skew the host's immune system, thereby …

The generation of protective immunity to helminth parasites is critically dependent upon the
development of a CD4+ T helper type 2 cytokine response. However, the host–parasite …
