What cytokines are expressed on Abomasum Lymph nodes when Somalis crossbreed sheep are infected by Haemonchus contortus in Northeast of Brazil.

Cytokines play an important role in response to gastrointestinal nematodes infections and the knowledge about its expression is one way to infers how the host is responding to parasite. The present study evaluated the expression of cytokines IL-4 (interleukin-4), IL-13 (interleukin-13), TNF- (tumoral necrosis factor) and IFN- (interferon) in Somalis crossbreed sheep resistant and susceptible to Haemonchus contortus infection in northeast of Brazil.
