INTERLEUKIN-5 MEDIATES PARASITE-INDUCED PROTECTION AGAINST EXPERIMENTAL AUTOIMMUNE ENCEPHALOMYELITIS: ASSOCIATION WITH INDUCTION OF ANTIGEN-SPECIFIC CD4+CD25+ T REGULATORY CELLS

Interleukin-5 Mediates Parasite-Induced Protection against Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis: Association with Induction of Antigen-Specific CD4+CD25+ T Regulatory Cells

ObjectiveTo examine if the protective effect of parasite infection on experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) was due to interleukin (IL)-5, a cytokine produced by a type-2 response that induces eosinophilia.We hypothesize that, in parasite infections, IL-5 also promotes expansion of antigen-specific T regulatory cells that control autoimmu
