To study the mechanisms of immunity to Rickettsia mooseri (R. typhi) infection, sera and splenic cells collected from nonimmune and immune guinea pigs were inoculated separately into syngeneic nonimmune recipients which were subsequently challenged intradermally. Protection was measured by comparing the course of the challenge infections of recipients with infections initiated with the same rickettsial inocula in nonimmune animals. Recipients of splenic cells collected 21 days after donor infection were protected from lesion development at sites of intradermal challenge and showed fewer rickettsiae in their kidneys. Cells obtained from nonimmune donors did not protect against either skin lesion development at sites of challenge or kidney infection. Antibody-containing sera collected 21 days after donor infection, but not normal sera, reduced levels of kidney infection, but immune sera did not protect against the development of lesions at sites of intradermal challenge. It was concluded that both immune sera and immune splenic cells possess capacities to effect a partial control of the systemic phase of R. mooseri infection in guinea pigs, but that immune splenic cells possess a capacity not shared by immune sera, i.e., the capacity to protect from infection at local sites of intradermal inoculation.
