Figure 2

Bright-field microscopy images of cross section of liver from control (A) and QN-treated (B) mice. Arrows indicate S. mansoni eggs deposited in mouse liver. Original magnification ×100. (C) Quantification of granuloma area in liver from control (closed squares, n = 17) and QN-treated (open squares, n = 38) mice (*p = 0.0021, Student's t test). Each symbol represents data from individual mice. The horizontal bars represent the median of granuloma area of each treatment.
