Fig 3. Reversion of the parasitic success in Cxcr4+/1013 mice upon intravenous inoculation.

Fig 3

Both wt (white bars) and Cxcr4+/1013 (black bars) mice were injected with 40 infective larvae either subcutaneously (SC) or intravenously (IV) and worms were recovered in the pleural cavity at 20 days p.i. Filarial loads (means +/- SEM) were 5.89 +/- 0.53 and 2 +/- 0.21 for the wt and Cxcr4+/1013 SC-inoculated mice, respectively; and 13.1 +/- 1.1 and 12.25 +/- 1.1 for the wt and Cxcr4+/1013 IV-inoculated mice, respectively. The parasitic success represents for each mouse the larvae counts recovered in the pleural cavity expressed as percent of the inoculum. Results are expressed as mean +/- SEM, n = 7 to 12, One-way ANOVA then Bonferroni *: p < 0.05; ***: p < 0.001; ns = not significant.
