TABLE 2.
Worm burdens at day 15 p.i. of T. muris-infected SCID mice reconstituted with PBL from immune BALB/c mice taken 60 days p.i. from naive uninfected BALB/c littermates or nonreconstituted controls
| Treatment | No. of worms recovered
|
|
|---|---|---|
| From individual mice | Median | |
| Infection alone | 48, 145, 165, 230 | 155 |
| Infection + immune PBL | 10, 11, 23 | 11a |
| Infection + naive PBL | 105, 152 | 128.5 |
Significantly lower worm burden (P < 0.05) than in the infected controls.
