Pregnancy reduces the genetic resistance of C57BL/6 mice to Listeria monocytogenes infection by intragastric inoculation.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Jun 2011

Poulsen Keith P, Faith Nancy G, Steinberg Howard, Czuprynski Charles J

Abstract excerpt

In this study, we compared genetically resistant C57BL/6 and susceptible A/J mice for their resistance to Listeria monocytogenes infection during pregnancy. Intragastric infection with modest numbers of bacterial cells (10(5) CFU) caused reproducible fetal infection and abortion in both mouse strains. Bioluminescence imaging demonstrated dissemination of L. monocytogenes cells from maternal to fetal organs within...
