Bacterial translocation from the gastrointestinal tracts of thymectomized mice

摘要: The incidence of translocation viable indigenous bacteria from the gastrointestinal tract to mesenteric lymph node, spleen, liver, and kidney was compared in neonatally thymectomized mice sham-thymectomized specific pathogen-free mice. immunologic responses sheep erythrocytes were decreased Strictly anaerobic isolated only 1.8% organs none shamthymectomized Aerobic or facultatively cultured 27.4% Of mice, 70.7% contained aerobic one more their tested, with 10% mice.Escherichia coli predominant bacterial species these organs, althoughStaphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus, andCorynebacterium also present.Bacteroides strictly cultured. Neonatal thymectomy promotes certain kidney.
