  • Title: [Casual influence of the stimulation of macrophage production by proteose-peptone, in the experimental infection of mice by Plasmodium berghei].
    Author: Arantes SC, Braz LM, Amato Neto V.
    Journal: Rev Hosp Clin Fac Med Sao Paulo; 1994; 49(6):243-5. PubMed ID: 7610336.
    Abstract:
    Proteose-peptone is a known powerful stimulator of macrophages. This stimulation was studied in an experimental malaria infection model, using Plasmodium berghei in mice. Parasitemia and mortality did not change in stimulated animals, and macrophage mobilization, contrary to other published papers, was not effective to increase either parasite levels in the blood or mortality.
