P21 activated kinase‐1 (PAK1) in macrophages is required for promotion of Th17 cell response during helminth infection

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 24, Issue 24, Page 14325-14338, December 2020., 2020
Abstract CD4+T cells differentiate into distinct functional effector and inhibitory subsets are facilitated by distinct cytokine cues present at the time of antigen recognition. Maintaining a balance between T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells are critical for the control of the immunopathogenesis of liver diseases.

Follicular helper T cells recruit eosinophils into host liver by producing CXCL12 during Schistosoma japonicum infection

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2566-2572, February 2020., 2020
Abstract Schistosomiasis affects at least 200 million people in tropical and subtropical areas. The major pathology of schistosomiasis is egg‐induced liver granuloma characterized by an eosinophil‐rich inflammatory infiltration around the eggs, which subsequently leads to hepatic fibrosis and circulatory impairment in host.
