FIGURE 2.

T. gondii infection induces acute and chronic inflammatory responses in the mouse prostate. (A) Representative 10× (left) and 40× (right) images of (H&E)-stained sections of dorsal lateral prostates (DLP) from uninfected control (left) and T. gondii infected (right) mice at 14, 28, and 60 DPI Scale bars mark 25 µm. (B) Inflammatory infiltrate scores from DLP, ventral (VP), and anterior lobes (AP) of age-matched control and T. gondii infected mice at 14, 28, and 60 DPI, (n = 6–10, each group) using the established scoring system published by Boehm et al.³⁴ Data are presented as the mean inflammatory infiltrate score ± SEM and compared to uninfected control mice by two-tailed student’s t-test. *P < 0.05
