Resistance to Toxoplasma gondii Infection in Mice Treated with Silk Protein by Enhanced Immune Responses

This study investigated whether elevated host immune capacity can inhibit T. gondii infection. For this purpose, we used silk protein extracted from Bombyx mori cocoons as a natural supplement to augment immune capacity. After silk protein administration to BALB/c mice for 6 weeks, ratios of T lymph...
