Activation-induced T helper cell death contributes to Th1/Th2 polarization following murine Schistosoma japonicum infection.

In chronic infectious diseases, such as schistosomiasis, pathogen growth and immunopathology are affected by the induction of a proper balanced Th1/Th2 response to the pathogen and by antigen-triggered activation-induced T cell death. Here, by using S. japonicum infection or schistosome antigens-imm...
