  • Title: Development of Brugia pahangi infections and lymphatic lesions in male offspring of female jirds with homologous infections.
    Author: Klei TR, Blanchard DP, Coleman SU.
    Journal: Trans R Soc Trop Med Hyg; 1986; 80(2):214-6. PubMed ID: 3787681.
    Abstract:
    The development of Brugia pahangi infections and associated gross lymphatic lesions were compared in male offspring from B. pahangi-infected and uninfected female jirds. The numbers of adult worms recovered did not differ between groups but a greater number of offspring of infected females (92%) developed circulating microfilaraemias than did individuals from uninfected females (50%). Intralymphatic granulomatous thrombi, lymphatic dilatations and lymphatic lesion scores were significantly reduced in offspring from infected mothers.
