Evidence of microbial translocation associated with perturbations in T cell and antigen-presenting cell homeostasis in hookworm infections.
Microbial translocation (MT) is the process by which microbes or microbial products translocate from the intestine to the systemic circulation. MT is a common cause of systemic immune activation in HIV infection and is associated with reduced frequencies of CD4(+) T cells; no data exist, however, on...
