Cellular immunity in experimental <i>Echinococcus multilocularis</i> infection. II. Sequential and comparative phenotypic study of the periparasitic mononuclear cells in resistant and sensitive mice

Abstract excerpt

Cellular immune responses have been shown to be associated with differential evolutions of E. multilocularis infection in intermediate hosts. A relationship between course of delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) against parasitic antigens and receptivity of murine strains has been demonstrated recently. The aim of this study was to correlate resistance and sensitivity to E. multilocularis infection with the...
