FIG 6.
Quantification of cellular nuclei in the cardiac tissue of mice treated with RvD1 during acute infection. (A) Representative photomicrographs of histological sections of the heart. U, uninfected mice; U+RvD1, uninfected mice treated with RvD1; I, infected mice; +RvD1, infected mice treated with RvD1. (B) Quantitation of cellular infiltration after treatment during acute infection. Data are shown as the means ± SD. P values were determined by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s posttest. *, P <0.001 when the uninfected group was compared to the infected groups; &, P < 0.001 when the uninfected group treated with RvD1 was compared with the infected groups. Black bars, uninfected mice and uninfected mice treated with RvD1; gray bars, CD-1 mice infected with the Brazil strain of T. cruzi and infected CD-1 mice treated with RvD1 during acute infection.
