lüll Regulation of type 1 diabetes, tuberculosis, and asthma by parasites Liu Z; Liu Q; Bleich D; Salgame P; Gause WCJ Mol Med (Berl) 2010[Jan]; 88 (1): 27-38Helminth infection is a worldwide health problem. In addition to directly causing disease, helminthic infection also affects the incidence and progression of other diseases by exerting immune modulatory effects. In animal models, infection with helminthic parasites can prevent autoimmune diseases and allergic inflammatory diseases, but worsens protective immunity to certain infectious pathogens. In this review, we summarize current findings regarding the effects of helminth infection on type 1 diabetes, tuberculosis, and asthma and discuss possible mechanisms through which helminthic parasites modulate host immunity. Investigating these mechanisms could lead to treatment strategies that specifically modulate the immune response as well as address fundamental questions in immunobiology.|Animals[MESH]|Asthma/immunology/*parasitology[MESH]|Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1/immunology/*parasitology[MESH]|Helminthiasis/immunology/*parasitology[MESH]|Host-Parasite Interactions/*immunology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Tuberculosis/immunology/*parasitology[MESH] |
