FIG. 1.

Natural history of a concomitant MoPn genital tract infection and Candida vaginal infection. Mice were treated with progesterone (day -7) and with MoPn (day 0), followed by estrogen (E2) treatment and Candida inoculation (day 10). Controls included Candida or MoPn inoculated alone under the same hormone treatment regimens. (A) Vaginal Candida burden (CFU). (B) Genital tract Chlamydia burden (IFU, inclusion forming units). Each data point represents the mean ± standard error of the mean of 4 to 12 mice per group. No significant differences were found among groups by two-way analysis of variance.
