The course of influrenza infection in mice with graft-versus-host reaction.
The course of influenza infection in mice with a developed graft-versus-host reaction (GVHR) was changed. Due to disturbances in the inflammatory process the pneumonia was delayed and less marked. Consequently, the infected mice died later than controls. Influenza virus reproduction in the lungs was more intensive and its persistence more prolonged. Interferon production in the lungs of mice with GVHR was similar to that in the controls.
