Immunomodulatory effects of Eimeria maxima surface antigen (EmSAG) as an IFN-γ inhibitory molecule on peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and T cell subsets in chickens

Abstract Eimeria maxima (E. maxima) infection inhibits the expression of IFN-γ, a cytokine that is essential for the Th1 immune response and plays a key role in combating this parasite.
