Experimental Meningococcal Sepsis in Congenic Transgenic Mice Expressing Human Transferrin

Severe meningococcal sepsis is still of high morbidity and mortality. Its management may be improved by an experimental model allowing better understanding of its pathophysiology. We developed an animal model of meningococcal sepsis in transgenic BALB/c mice expressing human transferrin. We studied...
