cellular
• lower levels of apoptosis in the intestinal villi of mice infected with Trichinella spiralis
|
hematopoietic system
• significantly increased intestinal mucosal mast cell population by day 10 of N brasiliensis infection
• mast cells of smaller size and with more uniformly round granules which stain less intensly after infection
• granules lack crystalline structures
• granules with reduced esterase activity in infected individuals
• connective tissue mast cells were normal
