Immunologic relevance of the cuticle and epicuticle of larval Dirofilaria immitis and Toxocara canis

Investigations of the immunobiology of tissue stages of larval nematodes reveal several common, immunologically relevant features associated with the cuticle and epicuticle. First, commonality exists between surface and excretory-secretory antigens. Second, larval surfaces are often directly involve...
