Expression of SOD-3::GFP in C. elegans head region after feeding with C. neoformans and C. gattii. A Representative image of SOD-3 expression at the head region of E. coli OP50-, C. neoformans-, and C. gattii-infected sod-3p::GFP (muIs84) nematodes. All worms were exposed to E. coli OP50, C. neoformans 32045, and C. gattii 56992 on BHI plates for 48 h at 25 °C, then imaged. B Relative SOD-3::GFP expression was evaluated by using ImageJ software, and the mean SOD-3::GFP expression of mock-infected nematodes was set as 1. Data were represented in mean ± SD (n = 30). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ****P < 0.0001; not significant (P > 0.05). Scale bar = 20 µm
