Abstract

Acute exposure to 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) can suppress adaptive immunity. In this study, pre-exposure of Leishmania major-infected mice to TCDD caused a dose-dependent and unexpected decrease in parasite burdens on day 20 after infection. In contrast, TCDD-mediated lymphoid atrophy, suppressed antibody levels, and enhanced interleukin-2 production were observed as expected. These results suggest that TCDD may enhance resistance to L. major in the face of immune suppression.
