Group 2 innate lymphoid cells exhibit progressively higher levels of activation during worsening of liver fibrosis
(Mexican Association of Hepatology, 2019-03)
Introduction: The interleukin-33/interleukin-13 pathway is involved in the immunopathology of liver fibrosis and recently characterized group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) were identified as profibrotic immune cells in ...

Antigen-based nano-immunotherapy controls parasite persistence, inflammatory and oxidative stress, and cardiac fibrosis, the hallmarks of chronic chagas cardiomyopathy, in a mouse model of trypanosoma cruzi infection
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute, 2020-02-21)
Chagas cardiomyopathy is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi (Tc). We identified two candidate antigens (TcG2 and TcG4) that elicit antibodies and T cell responses in naturally infected diverse hosts. In this study, we cloned TcG2 ...
