Lung-phase immunity to Schistosoma mansoni: definition of alveolar macrophage phenotypes after vaccination and challenge of mice.

Abstract excerpt

Phenotypic changes in murine alveolar macrophages have been described in response to vaccination with irradiated cercariae and to a subsequent challenge with normal parasites. Flow cytometric analysis was used to quantify the proportions of cells strongly positive for a number of macrophage surface markers, detected by a panel of monoclonal primary antibodies and fluorescent secondary antibodies. The proportion...
