Effect of parasitic infection on muscular function of dystrophin gene (Dmd) deficient mouse.

These results suggest that mdx mice continued in infection and inflammation until the late stages of disease, which was in contrast to the C57BL/10 mice that recovered to some extent in the late stage of infection. In addition, that dystrophin-deficient mice are not suitable for T. spiralis infection compared to normal mice, and the degree of inflammation may be worse in mdx mice.
