Impact of Paracoccidioides brasiliensis Coinfection on the Evolution of Schistosoma mansoni-Induced Granulomatous Liver Injury in Mice

Figure 6

Number density of neutrophils and eosinophils in liver tissue from control uninfected mice (CG) those acutely and chronically infected only with Schistosoma mansoni (Sm), only with Paracoccidioides brasiliensis (Pb) and coinfected (Sm+Pb). ND: nondetected. Data are represented as mean and standard deviation (mean ± SD). The points represent the result of cell counting in liver sections obtained from each experimental group. Statistical difference among groups (P<0.05): vs. Sm, #vs. CG, and vs. CG, Sm, and Pb.
