Fig 5. Human immune cell composition and phenotyping in HCV infected HIL mice.

Leukocytes were prepared from livers and spleens of mock infected or mice infected with 10⁷ ffu of HCV 27 weeks post infection and analysed by flow cytometry. Shown are absolute numbers of various immune cell populations in (A) livers or (B) spleens of mock or HCV infected mice. Error bars represent standard error of the means. Mock n = 5, 10⁷ ffu HCV n = 12.
