Induction of murine cytolytic T lymphocytes by Pseudomonas aeruginosa exotoxin A.

abstract：:Fasciola hepatica is a prevalent helminth parasite of livestock. Infection results in polarization of the host's immune response and generation of type 2 helper (Th2) immune responses, which are known to be inhibitory to Th1 responses. Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) is a bacterial disease of economic and zoonotic importanc...
