Parasitemia and survival of BALB/c mice infected with a lethal dose of T. cruzi and treated with DNA vaccines at different times. Mice were infected with 5 × 104 T. cruzi parasites (strain H4), and then they were treated on days 5 and 12 (•), on days 10 and 17 (▵), or on days 15 and 22 (▴) postinfection with intramuscular injections of 100 μg of plasmid DNA encoding TSA-1 or they were treated with a saline solution (□). (A) Infection monitored by measuring parasitemia. The values are means for 5 to 15 mice per group. (B) Survival of infected and treated BALB/c mice.
