Immunocytochemical Detection Of Cytokines In The Lymph Nodes And Brains Of Mice Resistant Or Susceptible To Toxoplasmic Encephalitis

BALB/c mice develop toxoplasmic encephalitis (TE) but the pathology resolves; in contrast, CBA/Ca mice develop progressive TE. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed peak staining for interferon-v (IFN-ã) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) in lymph nodes of both strains on day 7 of infection, with eleva...
