Concurrent enteric helminth infection modulates inflammation and gastric immune responses and reduces helicobacter-induced gastric atrophy
Article Abstract:
Intestinal worm infections reduce the gastric inflammation caused by Helicobacter pylori. In mice, this was accompanied by lower levels of mRNA for cytokines and chemokines produced by pro-inflammatory type 1 T-helper cells.
