The role of the macrophage in immunity to Trypanosoma musculi
Parasite Immunology, 1986Summary Trypanosoma musculi was killed by adherent peritoneal exudate cells which had the typical appearance of macrophages. Observations by light and electron microscopy showed that the trypanosomes were phagocytozed and killed intracellular^ within phagocytic vacuoles of mouse macrophages. Adherence, phagocytosis and killing of T.

The effect of cyclosporin A on Trypanosoma musculi infection of mice
Canadian Journal of Microbiology, 1988Cyclosporin A treatment of mice infected with Trypanosoma musculi mimicked the effect of T-cell deprivation in increasing the parasitemia and lowering the antibody responses. However, in contrast to T-cell deprivation, cyclosporin A treated mice were still able to clear the parasites from the blood.

The immunosuppressive and mitogenic effects of Trypanosoma musculi.
Clinical and experimental immunology, 1979In CD-1 mice infected with Trypanosoma musculi, the production of IgM and IgG antibodies in response to sheep erythrocytes (SRBC) was significantly suppressed when mice were immunized with SRBC once high parasitaemias had developed. In infected mice which were not immunized with SRBC, background plaque-forming responses of spleen cells to SRBC were ...

Trypanosoma musculi Infections in Two Mouse Strains Exposed to Various Environmental Temperatures
The Journal of Parasitology, 1981dense, sometimes crystalline core (Desser and Lester, 1975, loc. cit.). This core has been shown recently to be composed partially of RNA (Barber et al., 1979, loc. cit.) which has not been demonstrated in rhoptries. Finally, the typical apicomplexan pellicular complex is not seen in the rodlet cells which are bound by a thickened wall containing many ...

Immunosuppression during Trypanosoma musculi infection in inbred strains of mice.
Journal of clinical & laboratory immunology, 1983Inbred strains of mice inoculated with T. musculi behaved as either sensitive (A/J, CBA/J and C3H/He/J) or relatively resistant (BALB/c, DBA/2, and C57B1/6) with respect to the magnitude of parasitaemia but not to the length of infection. Spleen cells from T.

[Course of Trypanosoma musculi infections in NMRI mice (author's transl)].
Tropenmedizin und Parasitologie, 1976The trypanosomes multiply during prepatency after minimal infection by a factor of 2.2-3.6 per day. During patency, increase of trypanosome number in the peripheral blood is basically non-logarithmic as the actual proliferating forms remain hidden in special vascular areas (kidney, placenta).
