Determination of (A-B) parasite load in the spleen and the liver by limiting dilution assay and (C-D) hepatosplenomegaly in vaccinated and non-vaccinated mice 4 months post challenge with L. infantum. Results are presented as means±SD of five individual mice per group, representative of two independent experiments with similar results. *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001 were assessed by one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparison tests.
