Ginger-extract-treatment mitigated inflammation and reduced thickness of alveolar septa in lungs of T. gondii-infected mice. (A) Representative image of lung tissue sections of uninfected mice stained with H&E showing uniform alveolar tissue with normal alveolar septa (black arrows). (B) Representative image of lung tissue sections of T. gondii-infected untreated mice showing significant thickening of alveolar septa with significant inflammatory infiltrate (red arrows) and edema (black arrows). (C) Representative image of lung tissue sections of infected mice treated with spiramycin showing thickened alveolar septa and chronic inflammatory cells (black arrows). (D) Representative image of lung tissue sections of infected mice treated with ginger extract showing alveolar septa with reduced thickening and inflammation (black arrows). All images were taken at 400× magnification.
