Journal ArticleDOI
Allergic inflammation as a hypothesis for the expulsion of worms from tissues: a review.
TL;DR: Comparison of studies of mice infected with Trichinella spiralis with the results obtained in this study suggest that the former is superior to the latter in terms of survival and quality of life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Immunity to Fasciola hepatica in the rat. Successful transfer of immunity by lymphoid cells and by serum.
J. Armour,J.D. Dargie +1 more
TL;DR: It was shown that this immunity to Fasciola hepatica could be transferred to recipients using either lymphoid cells or serum from infected donor rats, and the extent of the protection obtained by cells appeared to be related to the quantity and persistence of the antigenic stimulus in the donor.
Book ChapterDOI
Cell-mediated immunity against certain parasitic worms.
TL;DR: The chapter discusses the immune response to Nippostrongylus brasiliensis in rats as well as the effects of this response on the parasite itself and the field of CMI evolved after many years of intensive studies of delayed hypersensitivity.
Book ChapterDOI
Cell-Mediated Immunity in Certain Parasitic Infections
TL;DR: The term cell-mediated immunity is used to indicate merely the required participation of memory T-cells, leaving to the appropriate sections of the review a consideration of the separate roles of delayed hypersensitivity (DH) and humoral antibody.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistance to Fasciola hepatica in sheep: attempts to transfer resistance with lymph node and spleen homogenates.
TL;DR: Homogenates of lymph nodes and spleens obtained from infected and non-infected donor sheep were administered to groups of recipient sheep immediately prior to infection with Fasciola hepatica, and post-mortem examination at eight weeks revealed no significant differences in the weights of liver and spleen.

The rabbit as host in experimental fascioliasis.
TL;DR: It is concluded that two of the most important factors determining the number of flukes developing from a given number of 7-day old cercariae are the technique of infection and the natural resistance of the rabbit.
