FIGURE 7.
Altered levels of cytokines in infected mice at 90 dpi. The concentrations of TNF-α (A), IL-1β (B), IL-2 (C), IL-4 (D), IL-5 (E), IL-10 (F), and IL-17 (G) were quantified in the serum from C57BL/6 and BALB/c uninfected mice and from those infected with G or CL strains at 90 dpi, and their concentrations were found to be different from those of the control. The data are represented as box plots, and ∗ indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05) between the infected and uninfected mice [control (–)].
