Mice immunized with TSf-ISPA, TSf, ISPA and PBS were challenged with 1000 trypomastigotes of the Tulahuen strain 14 days after the last immunization. A. Parasitemia from PBS-inoculated (PBS, white bar), TSf-ISPA immunized (TSf-ISPA, black bar), TSf-immunized (dark gray bar) and ISPA-immunized (gray bar) mice at day 21 post infection. B. Survival rates are shown for TSf-ISPA immunized and infected mice (TSf-ISPA), PBS-inoculated and infected mice (PBS), TSf-immunized and infected mice (TSf), ISPA-immunized and infected mice (ISPA). The results are representative of two independent experiments (n = 6-10 mice per group), *p < 0,05, Mann-Whitney test was used for parasitemia analysis, Mantel-Cox Long rank test was used for survival analysis between TSf-ISPA vs PBS mice.
