Several strains of inbred mice were infected with the protozoan parasite Leishmania donovani, and, at several points during the infection, spleens of groups of these mice were tested for natural killer (NK)-cell activity vs lymphoma target cells in vitro and were evaluated for parasite burdens. Generally, elevated followed by normal (compared to uninfected control mice) or subnormal NK responses occurred as the result of infection. Elevated NK responses were not accompanied by high circulating levels of interferon, yet infected mice responded to an injection of an interferon inducer with interferon production as great as control mice. No consistent correlations among susceptibility phenotype to L. donovani infection, spontaneous NK activity phenotype, and infection-induced NK activation/depression patterns were detected among the various strains of mice.
