Quantitative PCR of mRNAs in the liver of Balb/c mice in comparison with the microarray data. Livers were isolated from three vaccinated mice before infection with Plasmodium chabaudi on day 0 pi (Vd0 group), from three vaccinated mice after infection on day 4 pi (Vd4 group), and from three non-vaccinated mice at Nd0 group and at Nd4 group. Means of duplicate determinations, performed with liver aliquots from three different mice, with half SEM. Stars and hashtags indicate significant differences (p < 0.01) between Vd4 and Vd0 groups as revealed by qRT-PCR and microarrays, respectively
