The study examines how immunosuppressed mice control oral infection by Encephalitozoon intestinalis, finding increased T-cell populations and pro-inflammatory cytokines reduce infection.

This study uses XID mice and cyclophosphamide immunosuppression to show B-1 and B-2 cells are critical for controlling Encephalitozoon cuniculi infection, with B-2 cell transfer reducing symptoms and inflammation.
