Figure 1From: Infection by and protective immune responses against Plasmodium berghei ANKA are not affected in macrophage scavenger receptors A deficient miceLack of SR-A expression does not affect Plasmodium berghei liver infection. (A) Plasmodium berghei quantification in the liver 40 hours post infection with Plasmodium berghei ANKA sporozoites as measured by qRT-PCR. (B) Plasmodium berghei quantification in the liver 40 hours post challenge with 10,000 Plasmodium berghei ANKA sporozoites, in animals previously immunized with a single dose of 50,000 radiation attenuated Plasmodium berghei ANKA sporozoites (RAS), as measured by qRT-PCR. Shown is the mean number of Plasmodium berghei ANKA 18s per HPRT mRNA molecules (×103) ± standard deviation (n = 4 mice per plot). Experiments were repeated twice.Back to article page
