B cell, T cell, dendritic and proliferating cells number in organized and disorganized spleens.

<p>Estimation of the average number of CD79α⁺ B and CD3⁺ T lymphocytes, S100⁺ dendritic cells and Ki-67⁺ proliferating cells in cross sections of the splenic compartments of dogs infected with <i>L. infantum</i> with and without disruption of splenic lymphoid tissue structure. Box and whisker plots represent median, 25% and 75% percentiles and ranges. Y-axis scale is in Log₁₀. The number of animals used in each estimative is shown on the top of the up range bar. P values (Mann-Whitney test) only shown for statistically significant differences.
