Immune response to Encephalitozoon cuniculi infection.

I A Khan1, M Moretto, L M Weiss.   

Abstract

Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasites, which can cause complications in immunocompromised individuals. Very little is known about the host immune response generated against these infectious agents. Encephalitozoon cuniculi is the best studied microsporidian and the protective immune response against this parasite is mediated by cytotoxic CD8(+) T cells.
