Transfer ofEimeria apionodesfrom wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus) to laboratory mice (Mus musculus)

Abstract: Transfer of Eimeria apionodes from wood mice directly into untreated laboratory mice was unsuccessful but transfer into corticosteroid-treated animals produced an oocyst output, about 1000 times less than that observed from wood mice after a similar inoculum. Repeated passage through corticosteroid-treated laboratory mice resulted in a line adapted to survival in untreated animals. This line was compared with the parent strain maintained in wood mice and some features of the oocyst output patterns, notably the… Show more

“…Nowell and Higgs (1989) successfully transmitted E. apionodes Pellérdy 1954 and E. hungaryensis Levine and Ivens 1965 from Apodemus sylvaticus Linnaeus 1758 to corticosteroid-treated laboratory mice. Ibrahim and Nowell (1991) subsequently adapted E. apionodes to untreated mice by a series of passages to corticosteroid-treated mice. Thus, our third hypothesis tested was the ability of E. cahirinensis to infect a distant but immunocompromised rodent host.…”
