Within-host mechanisms of immune regulation explain the contrasting dynamics of two helminth species in both single and dual infections.
Variation in the intensity and duration of infections is often driven by variation in the network and strength of host immune responses. While many of the immune mechanisms and components are known for parasitic helminths, how these relationships change from single to multiple infections and impact...
