Fig 1. Blood glucose, body weight and fungal burden parameters in mice of experimental groups: Infected, Uninfected, DM-Uninfected and DM-Infected.

A) Blood glucose variation between groups during all experimental period. B) Body weight variation of DM-Infected and Infected mice and its respective controls. One way variance analysis (ANOVA) with Tukey post test showed *** p < 0,01. C) Fungal burden in Infected and DM-Infected mice by E. cuniculi. Non-parametric t-test showing * p<0.01, comparing each group of each period, separately. D) E. cuniculi spores observed in the PerC of DM-Infected mice stained by Calcofluor fluorescent staining.
