mortality/aging
• L. monocytogenes-infected mice die sooner than similarly treated wild-type mice
|
immune system
• towards 10% fetal calf serum in a filter migration assay
|
• macrophage binding and phagocytosis of Ig-coated latex beads are reduced compared with wild-type cells
• L. monocytogenes-exposed macrophages uptake 92% fewer bacteria than similarly exposed wild-type cells
• however, treatment with KCL rescues bead binding and phagocytosis
|
• L. monocytogenes-infected mice exhibit a 6000% higher bacterial load compared with similarly treated wild-type mice
|
• L. monocytogenes-infected mice die sooner than similarly treated wild-type mice
|
growth/size/body
• mice weight 10% less than wild-type mice
