About This Image

Nematodes surrounded by bubbles

Gravid female nematode worms (Nippostrongylus brasiliensis) surrounded by bubbles. A hooked posterior end and eggs are also illustrated. N. brasiliensis was used to determine a role for IL-4 receptor α on smooth muscle cells during infection (see Horsnell et al).
