RESUMO
Mast cell-deficient W/Wv infant mice were similar to normal mice in their susceptibility to and recovery from infection with the intestinal protozoan Cryptosporidium parvum. W/Wv adult mice were significantly more susceptible to primary infection than were normal adult mice, but both groups recovered at a similar rate.
