Interaction of nonhuman primate peripheral blood leukocytes and Coccidioides immitis in vitro.

L Beaman, C A Holmberg
PMCID: PMC551260  PMID: 6776061

Abstract

The leukocytes from rhesus macaques could not kill either endospores or arthrospores of Coccidioides immitis even in the presence of immune serum and complement, although these leukocytes were able to kill Candida and Listeria organisms.
