TABLE 2.

Histopathological scores assigned to the focal lesions observed in the brains, livers, and kidneys of mice treated with saline (control), POS, GM-CSF, or the combination of POS and GM-CSF

Organ Focal lesion score for mice treated witha:
Saline POS GM-CSF POS-GM-CSF
Brain 1.50 ± 0.22 1.48 ± 0.22 0.84 ± 0.16 1.59 ± 0.28
Liver 0.11 ± 0.06 0.21 ± 0.08 0.30 ± 0.09 0.08 ± 0.05
Kidneys 1.43 ± 0.20 1.56 ± 0.21 1.32 ± 0.23 1.15 ± 0.22

All values are expressed as the means ± standard errors of means of the focal lesion scores for each organ. Lesion scores were calculated as described in Materials and Methods. Data were analyzed by the Kruskal-Wallis ANOVA with Dunn's posttest for multiple comparisons. No significant differences were seen among the treatment groups.
