Chronic chlamydial genital infection in congenitally athymic nude mice.
Congenitally athymic nude mice and their heterozygous counterparts were inoculated intravaginally with the chlamydial agent of mouse pneumonitis, a Chlamydia trachomatis biovar. Heterozygous mice resolved their infections in 20 days, whereas nude mice developed chronic infections which lasted at least 265 days and did not resolve within the time course of the experiments. Heterozygous mice prod...
متن کاملChronic infection with Trypanosoma musculi in congenitally athymic nude mice.
Trypanosoma musculi produces a chronic infection with a consistently elevated parasitemia in nude mice. Thymic reconstitution of nude mice restores immunity to the infection.
متن کاملHerpetic keratitis in athymic (nude) mice.
The inflammatory response to herpes simplex virus infection of the cornea was studied in athymic nude (nu/nu) and heterozygote (nu/+) BALB/c mice. Although athymic mice were highly susceptible to HSV infection and died 13 to 17 days after corneal inoculation, they failed to develop necrotizing keratitis of the cornea. Heterozygote mice survived the initial virual infection, but many of these mi...
متن کاملPathogenesis of K papovavirus infection in athymic nude mice.
The fatal outcome of K virus infection in infant mice and cytoxan-treated adult mice is related to their inability to mount a prompt antibody response to the virus. Athymic nude mice infected with K virus exhibited no clinical illness and no detectable virus-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) response, but they did exhibit a low level of virus-specific immunoglobulin M response. Transfer of spleen...
متن کاملStudy of Camelpox Virus Pathogenesis in Athymic Nude Mice
Camelpox virus (CMLV) is the closest known orthopoxvirus genetically related to variola virus. So far, CMLV was restricted to camelids but, recently, three human cases of camelpox have been described in India, highlighting the need to pursue research on its pathogenesis, which has been hampered by the lack of small animal models. Here, we confirm that NMRI immunocompetent mice are resistant to ...
