Abstract
Local neutrophil influx occurs in response to enteric bacterial as well as nematode infection. Neutrophilic release of the serine protease, elastase (NE), is implicated in host defense as well as tissue injury. The aim of this study was to determine the contribution of elastase in host defense against enteric pathogens that induce a Th1/Th17 or a Th2 immune response. Elastase deficient (ELA1-/-) or C57BL/6 (WT) mice (n=5-7) were inoculated with...
