Effect of IL-2 treatment on parasitemia during the course of infection with P. yoelii (17XL strain) in DBA/2 mice (n = 5/group). The parasitemia in IL-2-treated and -infected moribund DBA/2 mice was slightly increased compared to mice given infection alone at day 6 after infection. Evaluation of parasitemia could not be continued in treated and infected mice beyond day 6 of infection as they died by this time period, whereas parasitemia was shown in surviving mice given infection alone until day 30 of infection. This experiment was repeated three times.
