Abstract excerpt
Macrophage activation and production of opsonizing antibodies were studied in mice either infected with a lethal and reticulotropic Trypanosoma cruzi strain, RA, or with a non lethal and myotropic strain, CA-I, as well as with a clone, K98 (derived from CA-I), similar to the parental strain. Measurement of macrophage respiratory burst by chemiluminescence disclosed that T. cruzi infection induced an enhancement...
