Genetic background affects susceptibility in nonfatal pneumococcal bronchopneumonia.

The European respiratory journal - 1 Feb 2004

Preston J A, Beagley K W, Gibson P G, Hansbro P M

Abstract excerpt

A nonfatal pneumococcal lung infection model was required to investigate immune responses during recovery, and the interaction of other diseases subsequent to infection. A murine model of nonfatal pneumococcal lung infection was developed and the effect of genetic background on susceptibility was determined in BALB/c and C57BL/6 mice. Bacteria colonised the lungs and mice developed mild clinical illness with...
