Figure 5. Macrophage (A) and neutrophilic granulocyte (B) cell populations in spleen of T. borreli- and T. carassii- infected fish.

Carp were injected (i.p.) with a dose of 10000 parasites per fish, PBS-injected individuals served as negative controls. Spleens from non-infected and infected fish were collected at different time points post-injection. Monocytes/macrophages (WCL-15+) and neutrophilic granulocytes (TCL-BE8+) are stained in red. One experiment representative of three independent experiments is shown.
