Helminth extracellular vesicles co‐opt host monocytes to drive T cell anergy

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Parasitic helminths secrete extracellular vesicles (EVs) into their host tissues to modulate immune responses, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We demonstrate that Ascaris EVs are efficiently internalised by monocytes in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells and increase the percentage of classical monocytes. Furthermore,
