Kinetics of disease in C57BL/6 mice infected with the N67C parasite. (a) Parasitemia, (b) survival, (c) body weight, (d) hematocrit, (e) number of splenic leukocytes, and (f) total spleen weight over the course of N67C infection. (g) Representative photomicrographs of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained spleen sections from non-infected (NI) and N67C-infected mice at days 4 and 6 post-infection (dpi) showing progressive loss of cellularity mainly in the red pulp and marginal zone (40X magnification). The results are expressed as mean ± SEM (3–5 mice) and are representative of two or three independent experiments. Kruskal-Wallis test, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, and ***p < 0.001 (compared to NI group).
