The parasite burdens in the livers of immunized and naive mice, as determined by real-time PCR. Groups of BALB/c mice (5 mice per group) were immunized i.m. with 1010 virus particle of the recombinant adenovirus expressing the Plasmodial sequence and challenged two weeks after the immunizations by i.v. injection of 104 P. yoelii live sporozoites. The protection against a sporozoite challenge is shown as the inhibition of liver infection. The horizontal bars represent median values. In all experiments, the results represent one of two similar experiments.
