C3H/HeN and C3H/HeJ mice were infected ip with viable BCG, a macrophage-activating agent, and their peritoneal exudate macrophages exposed to Leishmania tropica amastigotes. Macrophages from BCG-infected C3H/HeN mice had both leishmanicidal activities described for lymphokine activation of C3H/HeN macrophages in vitro: increased resistance to L. tropica infection, followed by intracellular killing of the parasite. Macrophages from BCG-infected C3H/HeN mice were also activated to kill tumor cells in vitro. In contrast, macrophages from BCG-treated C3H/HeJ mice were not resistant to L. tropica infection, did not kill intracellular amastigotes over 72 hr in culture, and were not cytotoxic to tumor cells.
