Figure 7. ST2-ko mice have a delayed splenic clearance of transferred microfilariae.

Figure 7

Kinetics of blood microfilariae numbers in ST2-ko mice and wild type (WT) controls after i.v. inoculation of 50,000 microfilariae (A). Blood microfilariae counts in splenectomized and sham-treated ST2-ko mice and WT controls one hour after inoculation with 50,000 microfilariae per mouse (B). Differences were tested for statistical significance by Mann-Whitney-U-test, *p<0.05. Representative data shown in (A) is from two independent experiments with at least 6 mice per group.
