Recombinant tumor necrosis factor alpha does not inhibit the growth of African trypanosomes in Axenic cultures
Mice whose tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-) genes were disrupted developed higher levels of parasitemia than wild-type mice following infection with Trypanosoma congolense IL1180 or T. brucei brucei GUTat3.1, confirming the results of earlier studies. To determine whether TNF- directly affects the...
