Cyclophosphamide effects on murine cryptococcosis.

J R Graybill, L Mitchell
PMCID: PMC422048  PMID: 689741

Abstract

BALB/c mice were given cyclophosphamide and challenged with Cryptococcus neoformans. Delayed-type hypersensitivity was transiently depressed, and survival was either unaffected or shortened by cyclophosphamide.
