Effect of RNAi on <i>T</i>. <i>brucei</i> cell growth <i>in vivo</i>.

<p>ICR mice were inoculated with RNAi cell lines targeting the two OPB-like genes (a), two POP-like genes (b), dipeptidyl peptidase-8 (c), or the type-I signal peptidase (d). Two mice in each experiment were left untreated (filled symbols) and two were given doxycycline (open symbols) to induce RNAi. The arrow indicates doxycycline administration. Parasitaemia in infected mice was counted at the times indicated.
