Differential resistance to nematode infection is associated with the genotype- and age-dependent pace of intestinal T cell homing by Joshua Adjah, Bhavya Kapse, Hongwei Zhang, Susanne Hartmann, Sebastian Rausch

“…The faster homing of Th2 cells to the gut of BALB/c mice is related to the extensive expression of the chemokine receptor CCR9 in GATA-3+ cells and higher frequencies of aldehyde dehydrogenase expressing dendritic cells present in mesenteric lymph nodes. Furthermore, nematode-infected older BALB/c mice displayed impaired resistance due to delayed mucosal homing of effector cells, which synergized with more numerous Th2/1 hybrid cells acting as IFN-γ-dependent confounders of type 2 responses. …”
