Mucosal T cell defence in large animal models of infection

Abstract:

The study of cellular immune responses in the mucosa has proven difficult within humans. Capturing the respiratory mucosal immune response is challenging without invasive sampling methods; therefore, research in this area has leant heavily on the use of animal models. Livestock species are naturally infected by a range of diseases which are also major human public health concerns, including influenza in pigs, tuberculosis in cattle and lung disease in sheep.
