Signatures of resistance to Lepeophtheirus salmonis include a TH2-type response at the louse-salmon interface

• Three distinct populations of cells (MHIIβ+, IL1β+, TNFα+) were identified in L. salmonis-infected salmon skin. • TH2-type responses at the louse attachment site may contribute to resistance in coho salmon. • Responses to infection differed in two susceptible salmon species, Atlantic and sockeye s...
