In murine Trypanosoma brucei infection, macrophage activation and nitric oxide (NO) production lead to suppressed splenic T-cell responses (J. Sternberg and F. McGuigan, Eur. J. Immunol. 22:2741-2744, 1992). In this study, evidence is presented that NO has no detectable trypanocidal activity under simulated in vivo conditions and that inhibition of NO production in vivo results in reduced parasitemia.
在小鼠布氏锥虫感染中,巨噬细胞激活和一氧化氮(NO)生成会导致脾脏T细胞反应受到抑制(J. 斯特恩伯格和F. 麦奎根,《欧洲免疫学杂志》22:2741 - 2744,1992年)。在本研究中,有证据表明,在模拟的体内条件下,NO没有可检测到的杀锥虫活性,并且体内抑制NO生成会导致寄生虫血症降低。
