Similar response in male and female B10.RIII mice in a murine model of allergic airway inflammation.
BACKGROUND: Several reports have been published on the gender differences associated with allergies in mice. GOAL: In the present study we investigate the influence of gender on allergy response using a strain of mice, B10.RIII, which is commonly used in the collagen-induced arthritis murine model. METHODS: Both male and female B10.RIII young mice were immunized with OVA and challenged four times
