(A) Animals were comprehensively scored for evaluation of overt clinical disease and cumulative clinical scores are shown. Data shown as mean plus standard deviation. Statistical comparison was performed by two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparison test at each time point. Day 6 PI P value = 0.0003. (B) At indicated time points platelets were enumerated in EDTA-treated whole-blood (normal range 300 – 500k/uL) and serum was evaluated for total protein (normal range 7.5 g/dL ±0.57), albumin (4.2 g/dL ±0.28) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (48.2IU/L ±36). Data is shown as mean plus standard deviation. Statistical comparison was performed between baseline values on day 0 and indicated time-point. N = 6 animals per group. Platelets, **** P < 0.0001, * P = 0.0129. Total Protein, **** P < 0.0001, ** P = 0.0027. Albumin, **** P < 0.0001, * P = 0.0131. AST, **** P < 0.0001, * P = 0.0280. P-values calculated with a two-tailed two-way ANOVA with Sidak’s multiple comparison test.
