Host immune responses limit, and in some instances eliminate, nematode infections. There is considerable interest in enhancing these natural processes by the use of antinematode vaccines to achieve control of infection or disease. How nematodes are damaged is unclear. Worms might be damaged directly by effector cells and molecules of the immune system. Alternatively, they might be damaged by the physiological stress of their efforts to resist attack. Separating these possibilities could have important implications for approaches to the control of nematode infections and the disease that they cause.
