H. and Rothwell T. L. W. 1981. Studies of the responses of basophil and eosinophil leucocytes and mast cells to the nematode Trichostrongylus colubriformis: comparison of cell populations in parasite resistant and susceptible guinea-pigs. Internationaljournal for Parasitology11: 67?70. Basophil and eosinophil leucocytes and mast cells in T. colubriformis resistant and susceptible guinea-pigs were compared. There were significantly more circulating and small intestinal eosinophils in the resistant guinea-pigs. Intestinal eosinophils increased in both groups following infection with T. colubriformis but after 10 days the count in susceptible animals had only reached the pre-infection count in the resistant group. Pre-infection intestinal mast cell counts in the two groups were similar. Mast cell counts in susceptible guinea-pigs did not change during the period of observation but almost doubled within seven days of infection in the resistant animals.  aBasophils  aImmunity  aMast cells  aNematoda  aTrichostrongylus colubriformis  aImunologia  aParasitologia  aRuminante  aNematodeos1 aROTHWELL, T.
