Delayed Clearance of Ehrlichia chaffeensis Infection in CD4(+) T-Cell Knockout Mice
Human monocytic ehrlichiosis is an emerging tick-borne disease caused by the rickettsia Ehrlichia chaffeensis. To examine the role of helper T cells in host resistance to this macrophage-tropic bacterium, we assessed E. chaffeensis infections in three mouse strains with differing functional levels o...
