Studies on Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) I. Microfilaraemia in hamsters in relation to worm burden and humoral immune response.
The course of a primary infection with Dipetalonema viteae was studied in one randomly bred and in one inbred strain of hamster. Worm recovery and the duration and intensity of the microfilaraemia were analyzed and related to the humoral immune response of the host by using the indirect immunofluorescent antibody test on frozen sections of female worms, on eggs and on intact microfilariae. The ...
متن کاملDipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea): development of the infective larvae in vitro.
The development of Dipetalonema viteae third stage larvae was attempted in vitro. A monophasic culture system consisting of BHK-21 medium supplemented with 10% tryptose-phosphate broth and 15% fresh jird serum allowed the growth of previously in vivo triggered larvae, but not of those isolated from ticks. The larvae could complete their third moult and grew on a fourth stage larvae up to 5 mm. ...
متن کاملSerum immunoglobulin and antibody levels and the passive transfer of resistance in hamsters infected with Dipetalonema viteae.
Clearance of microfilariae from the circulation of hamsters infected with Dipetalonema viteae was demonstrated following passive transfer of serum obtained from hyperinfected hamsters. The exclusion fraction after gel filtration of this serum on Sephacryl S 200 also cleared microfilariae whereas the other fractions did not. There was no clearance with serum taken during the pre-patent, patent o...

The effects of thermal stress on the numbers of circulating microfilariae of the filariid parasite, Dipetalonema viteue, in its host, the Mongolian jird, Meriones unguiculatus, was determi...
متن کاملThe genetic control of host responses to Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections in mice.
Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections were established in inbred strains of mice by the s.c. implantation of adult female worms and the resulting microfilaraemia and adult worm survival monitored. BALB/c mice were the most susceptible strain examined, showing a high level microfilaraemia of approximately 6 month's duration. C57Bl/10, CBA/Ca and C3H/He mice were all equally resistant to i...
