New Perspectives on Classical Alarmin Responses to Intestinal Helminth Infection

open access: yesParasite Immunology, Volume 47, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Interleukins 33, 25, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) are core components of type two immune responses and have been studied extensively using helminth infection models. However, many questions remain regarding their cellular sources, their immune recipients, as well as how they shape immunity.
