Strongyloides ratti: implication of mast cell-mediated expulsion through FcεRI-independent mechanisms
In order to examine whether FcεRI-dependent degranulation of intestinal mast cells is required for expulsion of intestinal nematode Strongyloides ratti, CD45 exon6-deficient (CD45-/-) mice were inoculated with S. ratti. In CD45-/- mice, egg excretion in feces persisted for more than 30 days followin...
