Marked increases in phospholipase B activity were measured in spleen homogenates and sera of CD-1 mice given a primary infection of Plasmodium yoelii. The rise in enzyme activity paralleled parasitemia and splenomegaly, all reaching maximum values 14 days after infection. Maximum enzyme activity and splenomegaly were noted 5 days after challenge in mice given a secondary infection indicating an anamnesticlike response following a subsequent contact with the infecting parasite. These observations represent a new finding of this enzyme activity in a protozoan infection.
