The Effects of Sex and Strain on <i>Pneumocystis murina</i> Fungal Burdens in Mice

The Effects of Sex and Strain on <i>Pneumocystis murina</i> Fungal Burdens in Mice

Many preclinical studies of infectious diseases have neglected experimental designs that evaluate potential differences related to sex with a concomitant over-reliance on male model systems. Hence, the NIH implemented a monitoring system for sex inclusion in preclinical studies. Methods: Per this ma...
