immune system
• poor activation of macrophage by Leishmania major
|
• higher levels of Th1 and Th2 cytokines secreted at 4 weeks after infection with Leishmania major than in controls
|
• response to endotoxin (LPS) prevented
(J:51522)
• Leishmania major parasitic loads significantly higher than controls starting 24 hours after infection and persisting to 11 weeks after infection when controls are free of parasites
(J:88996)
|
behavior/neurological
• attenuated mechanical allodynia after nerve injury
|
• attenuated response to heat
|
nervous system
• glial activation after nerve injury reduced
|
cardiovascular system
• exhibit reduced cardiac hypertrophy following pressure overload compared to controls
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• reduced spinal expression of TNF alpha, IFN gamma, IL-6 and IL-1 after injury
• glial activation after nerve injury reduced
|
• exhibit reduced cardiac hypertrophy following pressure overload compared to controls
|
hematopoietic system
• poor activation of macrophage by Leishmania major
