Detection of secretory vesicles linked to Schistocephalus solidus-mediated immunomodulation 2260149
Parasite-induced immunosuppression increases the host’s susceptibility to secondary infection, thereby decreasing its fitness. Parasites primarily mediate host immunomodulation via the production of excretory secretory products (ESPs). The cestode, Schistocephalus solidus, modulates the immune response, behavior,...
