The recirculation of Trichinella spiralis newborn larvae was studied in inbred AO rats. Newborn larvae collected after in vitro incubation of adult T. spiralis worms for 2 or 24 hr were injected into rats through the tail vein or hepatic portal vein. Blood samples from the femoral vein, hepatic portal vein, and abdominal aorta were collected at intervals from 1 min to 24 hr after larval injection. Newborn larvae of both ages (24 hr or 2 hr old) persisted in femoral vein blood for .ltoreq. 5 hr after injection, but they could not be detected in portal vein blood by 24 hr after injection. The injection of larvae into a tail vein or the portal vein did not influence the pattern of larval circulation, although there was a 1-5 min delay in new-born larval appearance time after injection into the portal vein. Transcapillary migration through tissue and back to the circulation was evident in the appearance of newborn larvae in the thoracic duct lymph up to 24 (occasionally 48) hr after tail vein injection of newborn larvae. During the course of a natural primary infection, no evidence for trapping of larvae in the mesenteric lymph node could be found despite direct larval migration through this organ. Injected newborn larvae were retained in the lungs, and small numbers could be recovered 24 hr after intravenous injection. We conclude that a proportion of newborn larvae recirculates within the vasculature for several hours: a smaller population extravastates but can reenter the circulatory system via the lymphatics. Furthermore, some newborn larvae are found in organs, rich in capillaries up to 24 hr after their entry into the blood.
