CD2 deficiency partially prevents small bowel inflammation and improves parasite control in murine Toxoplasma gondii infection

Figure 3 CD2 deficiency reduces parasite load in Toxoplasma gondii infection. Staining of pseudcysts in the ileum of T. gondii infected CD2^-/- (A) and WT mice (B). One week after infection CD2^-/- mice show significantly less pseudocysts. (C) Box blot analysis of pseudocysts in the ileum of CD2^-/- (n = 5) and WT mice (n = 6), (P = 0.006). ¹15 and o10 depict counted parasite number outside the box.
