Abstract
The presence of cell mediated immunity to Echinococcus granulosus antigen was detected in syngeneic mice with secondary hydatidosis. Significant increases of thymidine uptake were observed in spleen cells from infected animals exposed to protoscolex or hydatid fluid antigens. A definite decrease in the number and size of cysts occurred in mice following the simultaneous intraperitoneal injection of viable protoscolices and a suspension of 1 x 10(7) sensitized spleen cells.Entities:
