The Intestinal Microbiota Contributes to the Ability of Helminths to Modulate Allergic Inflammation

TL;DR: Chronic infection with the murine helminth Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri altered the intestinal habitat, allowing increased short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production and a similar alteration in the metabolic potential of intestinal bacterial communities was observed with diverse parasitic and host species, suggesting that this represents an evolutionary conserved mechanism of host-microbe-helminth interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Study of Host Immune Responses Elicited by the Model Murine Hookworms Nippostrongylus brasiliensis and Heligmosomoides polygyrus

TL;DR: A complete set of methods by which to investigate the natural progression of infection and the host immunological responses in the lung and intestine of H. brasiliensis and H. polygrus–infected mice are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parasite Proximity Drives the Expansion of Regulatory T Cells in Peyer's Patches following Intestinal Helminth Infection

TL;DR: Data indicate that different degrees of Treg expansion and type 2 cytokine production occur within the PPs and MLN following infection with the intestinal helminth H. polygyrus bakeri and indicate that these organs exhibit differential responsesFollowing infection with intestinal helmineths.
Journal ArticleDOI

Infection with a small intestinal helminth, Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri, consistently alters microbial communities throughout the murine small and large intestine.

TL;DR: Examination of the impact of experimental infection using the natural murine small intestinal helminth, Heligmosomoides polygyrus bakeri, revealed striking similarities in both the mucous and luminal bacterial communities along the entire small and large intestine.
