In vitro simulation of immuno-suppression caused by Trypanosoma brucei: Active involvement of gamma interferon and tumor necrosis factor in the pathway of suppression
Experimental infections of mice with the African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei lead to a profound state of T-cell unresponsiveness in the lymph node cell (LNC) compartment. This suppression is mediated by macrophage-like cells which inhibit interleukin 2 (IL-2) secretion and down-regulate IL-2 rece...
