Investigating the role of IL-4Rα mediated signalling on Foxp3⁺ T regulatory cells during cutaneous leishmaniasis by Maine, Rebeng

“…Foxp3ᶜʳᵉIL-4Rα⁻^/ˡᵒˣ male mice, which had a greater degree of IL-4Rα deletion on Foxp3⁺ Treg cells, developed significant footpad swellings and ear swellings, increased parasitic burdens at the site of infection and within draining lymph nodes. This hypersusceptible phenotype observed in Foxp3ᶜʳᵉIL-4Rα⁻^/ˡᵒˣ BALB/c male mice was accompanied with an increased Treg cell activity and amplified Type-2 immune response with an increase in IL-4, IL-10 from L. major-infected lymph node samples and IgE antibody secretion in L. major infected serum samples. …”
