BAL analysis of P. berghei and A. suum coinfection at the 7 dpi. A Total leukocyte in BAL. B BAL macrophages. C BAL lymphocytes. D BAL neutrophils. E BAL eosinophils. F BAL haemoglobin levels. G BAL total protein levels. H Larvae recovered from the BAL of Ascaris mono-infected and coinfected mice. Scale bar = 100 μm. Circle—noninfected group (n = 6), Square—P. berghei NK65-NY mono-infected group (n = 6), Triangle—A. suum mono-infected group (n = 6), Inverted triangle—coinfected group (n = 6 to 8). Kruskal–Wallis test followed by Dunn’s test and one-way ANOVA test followed by Tukey’s multiple comparisons were used. Results are shown as the mean ± SEM and were represented by *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001; and ****p < 0.0001
