Abstract:
:Both infective larvae and pollutants disturb the homeostasis of female Swiss albino mice, causing ancylostomiasis and severe immunophysiological changes. In our experimental design, mice in group A were fed 0.01 mg of lead nitrate before infection with 500 larvae of Ancylostoma caninum, mice in group B were infected with larvae without previous lead treatment, and group C received lead nitrate treatment alone. Control animals in group D were neither treated with lead nitrate nor infected with larvae. While all three experimental groups showed disturbances in liver alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and acid phosphatase (ACP), group C receiving lead nitrate treatment alone and group A receiving lead nitrate with infection showed increased levels of ACP and decreased levels of ALP.
