“…Earlier we have shown that mice of CBA/N strain have intermediate susceptibility to primary tuberculosis infection, like several other strains. However, unlike most mouse strains tested, CBA/N has shown a negligible increment of MST and no increase of DTH response after BCG vaccination [20]. These data suggest that CBA/N mice could serve as an experimental model to study distinct genetic control of the BCG protective effect and resistance to primary tuberculosis.…”

“…In order to determine if the low level of response to mycobacterial antigens observed earlier in the DTH reaction [20] is characteristic of the CBA/N strain in general, we studied the in vitro proliferation of lymph node cells from BCG-vaccinated CBA/N and CBA mice in the presence of PPD and H37Rv sonicate. As shown in Table 3a, the proliferative capacity of CBA/N lymphocytes was lower than that of CBA cells in the presence of PPD (P To study whether the difference in response was determined by APC or by T cells from two mouse strains, we performed coculture experiments.…”

“…The genetic control of baeillc Calmette-Gucrin (BCG)-induced protection to tuberculosis represents another major problem yet to be addressed. Earlier we showed that the efficacy of BCG vaccination differs dramatically in CBA and CBA/N-.v/f/ mice, whereas susceptibility to primary infeetion does not ( [27], and unpublished), and in this paper we studied the role of the H-2 comptex regulating protection and the DTH response in infeeted and vaccinated/infected H-2 congenic mice. We have also compared in susceptible and resistant H-2 eongenic mice T cell proliferation and antibody response to SDS-PAGE-separated myeobacterial antigens.…”
