Table S1.

Worm and egg burden in iNOS−/− rats without macrophage transfer compared with macrophage transfer (iNOS−/− + Mφ) of iNOS−/− rats at 6 wk after S. japonicum infection

Groups Total Male Female No. of eggs found in liver, per gram Eggs/female worm
iNOS−/− 106 ± 5 58 ± 3.5 49 ± 1.5 18,568 ± 3,158 379 ± 60
iNOS−/− + Mφ 67 ± 5.5* 50 ± 2.2 17 ± 3** 3,034 ± 354** 176 ± 20*

The iNOS−/− rats were infected percutaneously with 200 S. japonicum cercariae. Macrophages from WT rats were transferred into iNOS−/− recipients as described in SI Materials and Methods. Data are expressed as the mean ± SEM from two biological repeats (n = 10). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01.
