General Information Comment Organism
malfunction 5-LO-/- infected with Trypanosoma cruzi, are more susceptible than C57BL/6 and wild-type 129Sv, showing higher parasitemia and mortality Mus musculus
physiological function 5-lipoxygenase products may not only play a major role in controlling heart tissue parasitism, i.e., host resistance to acute infection with Trypanosoma cruzi in vivo, but in the event of an infection also play an important part in erythrocyte oxidative stress, an NO-dependent effect. 5-lipoxygenase metabolites increase lipid peroxidation levels in erythrocytes during the early phase of murine Trypanosoma cruzi infection, but do not participate in the development of anemia, thrombocytopenia or leukopenia in Trypanosoma cruzi-infected mice Mus musculus
