Fig. 2From: Analysis of spleen histopathology, splenocyte composition and haematological parameters in four strains of mice infected with Plasmodium berghei K173The change in body weight (A) and spleen weight (B) in the four strains of mice, spleen weights were normalized to the weight of uninfected groups (%). C Splenic index in uninfected and P. berghei K173 infected mice. Spleen weights of infected mice were determined on days 3, 5, and 8 post infection. The splenic index was determined as the ratio of spleen weight to body weight. All data are presented as mean ± SD, n = 6. ** and *** indicate statistical significance at p < 0.01 and p < 0.001 compared with the uninfected group, respectivelyBack to article page
