Histometría de la glándula sublingual de ratones (Mus musculus) machos y hembras infectados con la cepa RAL del parásito de Chagas, Trypanosoma cruzi

Abstract: Analizamos morfológica e histométricamente la glándula sublingual de ratones infectados con la cepa RAL del Trypanosoma cruzi, en machos y hembras. Usamos ratones albinos (Mus musculus), variedad Swiss, inoculados con 2x104 tripomastigotes sanguíneos de la cepa RAL del T. cruzi. Sacrificamos los animales en el pico de la parasitemia (12 día) y fijamos las glándulas sublinguales en ALFAC. Los cortes histológicos teñidos con HE fueron evaluados histométricamente (cariometría y estereología). La parasitemia fue m… Show more

“…The DNA-immunized/infected dogs did not have body temperature increases during the acute phase of the disease. The hypothesis of glandular hypertrophy in the murine model during the acute stage of CD has been reported, mainly because of numerous parasite nests in the gland parenchyma with atrophy of secretory structures [ 30 ]. This event could have taken place in our model; however, we were unable to confirm this since no histological analysis during this phase of the present study was performed.…”
