Studies on visceral Leishmania tropica infection in BALB/c mice. I. Clinical features and cellular changes.

J Djoko-Tamnou, C Leclerc, F Modabber, L Chedid.   

Abstract

The visceral and lethal infection produced in BALB/c mice by Leishmania tropica (major) is accompanied by splenomegaly, anaemia and reversal of albumin-to-globulin ratio. The percentages of both B and T cells are decreased in the spleen. The spleen and lymph nodes become populated with large Ig-, Thy 1.2- 'null' cells. The similarity of some of these parameters with those produced in human kala-azar is discussed.
