Immune response of BALB/c mice infected with two strains of Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis

This work evaluated aspects of the immune response of BALB/c mice infected with Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis (T1 and C57). The fifteen BALB/c mice were euthanized after 70 days of infection and morphologically evaluated, also analyzing the innate and adaptive immune responses. The C57 strain induced more pronounced morphological changes than the T1 strain. There was an increase in CD4
