Abstract

Studies were undertaken to determine whether treatments with low doses of natural human interferon alpha (HuIFN-alpha) administered by various routes could inhibit the development of the intra-erythrocytic protozoan Babesia microti in BALB/c mice. HuIFN-alpha treatment given intramuscularly significantly inhibited development of the parasitaemia of the parasite compared with infections in control mice.
