Leishmania major:Promastigotes Induce Expression of a Subset of Chemokine Genes in Murine Macrophages
1 Mar 1997
Abstract excerpt
Recent studies suggest that Leishmania major promastigotes infect cultured macrophages in a stealthy fashion, activating little or no host gene expression and often interfering with the host's ability to respond to further stimulation. Here we examined macrophage transcription at early times following infection, when virulent parasites must execute steps required for survival. Stationary-phase promastigotes...
