Evaluation of human trophoblasts and ovine testis cell lines for the study of the intracellular pathogenBrucella ovis
23 Nov 2018
Abstract excerpt
Since pathogenic Brucella survive and replicate inside phagocytes, cellular models of infection constitute important tools in brucellosis research. We describe the behavior of B. ovis PA (which causes a type of ovine brucellosis mainly affecting the male reproductive tract) and representative attenuated mutants in two commercially available cell lines of non-professional phagocytes related to Brucella tissue...
