متن کاملLipofuscin distribution and histological lesions in the vitamin E deficient cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus hispidus).
To identify the role of avitaminosis E in the production of histological lesions and the distribution of an acid-fast pigment in the young cotton rat, weanling animals were maintained on a vitamin E deficient diet for 41 to 179 days. Since the pigment, lipofuscin, cannot be degraded by any cell, including the macrophage, it accumulates linearly with age of the animal and the length of the avita...
متن کاملExperimental Typhus Infection in the Eastern Cotton Rat (sigmodon Hispidus Hispidus)
1. The course of typhus infection in cotton rats has been described, and a relationship between the dose administered and the time of death has been demonstrated. 2. Rather incomplete pathological studies indicated that typhus in the cotton rat is an acute infection primarily involving mesothelial tissue, and tissues of mesothelial origin. Depending somewhat upon the route of infection, rickett...
متن کاملDAMAGES CAUSED BY COTTON RAT, Sigmodon hispidus zanjonensis, ON SUGAR CANE IN SAN PEDRO SULA, HONDURAS
Technical assistance was given to Compañía Azucarera Hondureña, S.A. (Agro-Industrial Co.), Honduras, Central America, to determine if a campaign against noxious rodents to agriculture crops was needed. Several trappings were carried out at different places using snap traps to determine the population structure of rodents associated with the crop, and live traps to determine the index or densit...
متن کاملMeasles virus-induced immune suppression in the cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus) model depends on viral glycoproteins.
Immune suppression during measles accounts for most of the morbidity and mortality associated with the virus infection. Experimental study of this phenomenon has been hampered by the lack of a suitable animal model. We have used the cotton rat to demonstrate that mitogen-induced proliferation of spleen cells from measles virus-infected animals is impaired. Proliferation inhibition is seen in al...
