Abstract excerpt
The expression and kinetics of a panel of chemokines during Toxoplasma encephalitis (TE) were analyzed in a comparative study of genetically resistant BALB/c and susceptible C57BL/6 mice. In parallel with disease activity and the number of postinfection (p.i.) leukocytes, C57BL/6 mice induced CRG-2/IP-10, MuMIG, RANTES, MCP-1, MIP-1alpha, and MIP-1beta earlier and reached increased levels, as compared with BALB/c...
