Mycobacterium tuberculosis exploits the CD95/CD95 ligand system of gammadelta T cells to cause apoptosis.

abstract：:Prostaglandins (PG) are important modulators of immune and inflammatory responses. We recently demonstrated that the production of PGD(2) by the helminthic parasite Schistosoma mansoni inhibits the migration of epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) to the draining lymph nodes (DLN). Here, we identify the responsible parasit...
