Intestinal permeability during P. yoelii yoelii 17XNL infection. (A) Intestinal permeability in vivo quantitated with FITC-dextran in plasma of infected and control, uninfected mice after administration of FITC-dextran by oral gavage. (B) Ex vivo intestinal permeability determined from FITC-dextran passage across ligated, resected ileum sacs. Each dot represents a single mouse. Data were analyzed with the Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn’s multiple comparison of each time point with the control group. P values of <0.05 were considered significant. *, P ≤ 0.05; **, P ≤ 0.01.
