The genetic control of host responses to Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections in mice.

Abstract:

:Dipetalonema viteae (Filarioidea) infections were established in inbred strains of mice by the s.c. implantation of adult female worms and the resulting microfilaraemia and adult worm survival monitored. BALB/c mice were the most susceptible strain examined, showing a high level microfilaraemia of approximately 6 month's duration. C57Bl/10, CBA/Ca and C3H/He mice were all equally resistant to infection, showing a low level of microfilaraemia of approximately 1 month's duration. The response of NIH mice was intermediate. Relatively little strain difference was seen in adult worm survival although worms lived slightly longer in C57Bl/10 mice than in BALB/c mice. The adult females became depleted of microfilariae over a period of approximately 1 month before becoming encapsulated in host tissue. Challenge infections given to mice previously implanted with worms resulted in lower level, shorter lasting microfilaraemias than those seen in the initial primary infections. All strains showed immunity when challenged. High responsiveness (resistance) was inherited as a dominant trait in F1 hybrids produced by crossing high and low responder strains. Genes linked with the major histocompatibility complex (H-2) were found to have no effect on the response phenotype as demonstrated by the similar responses of H-2 congenic mice on the BALB/c or C57bl/10 backgrounds. The response phenotype of radiation chimaeras was determined by the phenotype of the donor from which bone marrow (BM) cells were taken for reconstitution. Susceptible BALB/c mice reconstituted with resistant B10D2/n BM behaved identically to the donor strain, indicating that the genetic variation which exists between mouse strains in their responses to D. viteae is expressed through a population of BM derived cells and is not simply a consequence of host structure or physiology.
