Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine Aims and scope

Abstract

Pronounced transformation of cells in mesenteric lymph nodes, mainly in the thymus-independent zone and sinuses, was detected in albino mice experimentally infected with West Nile fever (strain 986). Maximum antigen-presenting activity was exhibited by activated macrophages, minimum activity - by dendritic cells of lymphoid follicles.
