Decreased Susceptibility to Listeria monocytogenes in Mice After Infection with Trichinella spiralis

R H Cypess 1, A S Lubiniecki 1, D M Swidwa 1
PMCID: PMC414829  PMID: 4205953

Abstract

Mice challenged intravenously with Listeria monocytogenes at 7 or 21 days after Trichinella spiralis infection demonstrated a higher mean lethal dose and longer survival time than normal mice. This effect of helminthic infection was abrogated after 49 days.
