Mice infected with Trichinella spiralis were depleted of eosinophils by repeated administration of rabbit anti-mouse eosinophil serum. There was no effect on the spontaneous expulsion of adult worms from the small intestines, but the numbers of larvae in the muscles were almost doubled. It is concluded that eosinophils contribute to resistance to the systemic phase of trichinosis.
通过反复给予兔抗小鼠嗜酸性粒细胞血清,使感染旋毛虫的小鼠体内嗜酸性粒细胞减少。这对成虫从小肠的自发排出没有影响,但肌肉中幼虫的数量几乎增加了一倍。由此得出结论,嗜酸性粒细胞有助于抵抗旋毛虫病的全身感染阶段。
