The effects of intracellular iron availability on the outcome of infection in mice.

( parasite that obtains the iron it needs for its own metabolism from the host-cell iron pool. In this work, we aimed to investigate if iron supplementation or deficiency affected the course of infection. Eighty mice were divided into four groups, each with 20 animals: Group (I): Uninfected control group.

The potential therapeutic effect of and extracts versus Nitazoxanide drug against experimentally induced cryptosporidiosis in laboratory mice.

In this study, the potential anti-cryptosporidial effect of (black seeds) and (ginger) alcoholic extracts versus Nitazoxanide (NTZ) medication was investigated in immunosuppressed (IS) laboratory mice. Parasitological, histopathological studies were used to assess their therapeutic efficacy. Serum level and tissue expression percentage of IFN-γ was also used.
