Abstract：
:Inbred strains of mice differ in their susceptibility and resistance to challenge infections with Nematospiroides dubius. In our studies, F1 hybrid mice from resistant SJL and susceptible CBA parents were resistant to N. dubius challenge infections. Only 22% of backcrosses to SJL were susceptible while backcrosses to CBA had a wide range of susceptibility. Male mice were more susceptible than female mice. In another experiment, inbred strains of mice were compared in their ability to resist N. dubius challenge infection: SJL and A.SW (H-2s) mice became resistant after one immunizing infection, A, A/He (both H-2a), as well as BALB/c and DBA/2 (both H-2d) mice became resistant after two immunizing infections, while C57BL/6 (H-2b), C3H/He, CBA, and AKR (H-2k) mice remained susceptible. The resistance to reinfections was characterized by reduction of worm burdens between Days 6 and 14 postinfection. It was concluded that (1) resistance to N. dubius challenge infections is inherited in a dominant fashion and that multiple genes may influence such response, which in turn might be modulated by the Y chromosome; (2) both MHC and non-MHC genes may influence, in conjunction with the number of exposures to parasite antigens, the resistance to challenge infections.
