Abstract:Single cell isolation from helminth infected intestines has been notoriously difficult, due to the strong anti-parasite type 2 immune responses that drive mucus production, tissue remodeling and immune cell infiltration. Through the systematic optimization of a standard intestinal digestion protocol, we were able to isolate millions of immune cells from heavily infected tissues. Using this protocol, we validated many hallmarks of anti-parasite immunity and analyzed immune cells from the lamina propria and gran… Show more
