The Unexpected Role for the Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor on Susceptibility to Experimental Toxoplasmosis
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is part of a signaling system that is mainly triggered by xenobiotic agents. Increasing evidence suggests that AhR may regulate immunity to infections. To determine the role of AhR in the outcome of toxoplasmosis, we used AhR-/- and wild-type (WT) mice. Following an intraperitoneal infection with Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii), AhR-/- mice succumbed significan...
متن کاملImmunity in Experimental Toxoplasmosis*
The Beverley strain of Toxoplasma gondii produces a chronic infection in mice and other laboratory animals, causing few or no fatalities. There is an immune response to the parasite that can be detected by a variety of serological teclmiques, with however but little understandillg of the significance of the phemmenon. The purposes of these experiments were to determine: 1) the nature of this im...
متن کاملExperimental Congenital Toxoplasmosis
Pregnant mice infected with Toxoplasma by the vaginal route have been found to transmit toxoplasmosis to the placentas and fetuses in utero. The microorganism entered the blood stream of the mother from primary foci of infection in the vaginal wall and produced disseminated lesions in the labyrinth of the allantoic placenta at the same time as other peripheral maternal tissues were involved. Pl...

متن کاملExperimental toxoplasmosis in hypoiodemic mice
The hypothesis, that hypoiodemia of goats causes such a compromise of the immune system, which during subsequent Toxoplasma gondii infections results in clinically more pronounced signs of toxoplasmosis, was verifying in laboratory mouse. Hypoiodemic mice (fed by wheat and supplied by water), normoiodemic mice (fed by wheat and supplied by water containing 1.25 mg KI/l) and the majority of stan...
