The underlying mechanisms behind down-regulation of cellular proliferative responses during helminth infections remain unknown, although recent studies have suggested that host macrophages may be alternatively activated by the parasite to effect suppression via a contact-dependent mechanism (69, 71), via the production...

We review here the multiple layers of immunoregulation that have now been discovered in helminth infection and discuss both the cellular and the molecular interactions involved. ... The sum effect of these changes to host reactivity is to create an anti-inflammatory environment, which is most favorable to parasite survival.

Infection with a Helminth Parasite Attenuates Autoimmunity through TGF-β-Mediated Suppression of Th17 and Th1 Responses1 ... Infection was associated with suppression of parasite-specific Th1 and Th2 responses, which was reversed in IL-10-defective mice. Infection with F. hepatica also exerted bystander suppression of...

Infection with a Helminth Parasite Prevents Experimental Colitis via a Macrophage-Mediated Mechanism1 ... We examined whether infection with Schistosoma mansoni, a trematode parasite, altered the susceptibility of mice to colitis induced by dextran sodium sulfate (DSS). Mice infected with schistosome worms were refractory...
