Brain NAD/NADH Ratio and Total NAD Pool (nmol/g Wet Weight) in Control Uninfected, P. berghei ANKA-Infected (CM) and P. berghei K173-Infected (NCM) Mice
| CBA control | CM | NCM | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Day 7 | Day 7 | Day 18 | ||
| NAD/NADH ratio | 1.56 ± 0.11 | 1.59 ± 0.12 | 1.51 ± 0.15 | 1.19 ± 0.08 |
| (n = 7) | (n = 8) | (n = 5) | (n = 5) | |
| NAD pool | 0.51 ± 0.02 | 0.42 ± 0.01* | 0.46 ± 0.03 | 0.44 ± 0.02 |
| (n = 7) | (n = 8) | (n = 5) | (n = 5) | |
Values are mean ± SEM, with the number of mice given in parentheses.
*Indicates P < 0.005 when compared with control uninfected mice.
