Involvement of the Chemokine RANTES (CCL5) in Resistance to Experimental Infection with Leishmania major

The expression and putative role of chemokines during infection with Leishmania major in mice were investigated. CCL5 expression correlates with resistance, and blockade of CCL5 rendered mice more susceptible to infection. CCL5 is part of the cascade of events leading to efficient parasite control i...
