Follow up of the <i>in vivo Leishmania major</i> infection.

<p>A) Plot comparing the progression of fluorescence signal (pixel/second/cm²/sr) mean ± SEM over the time. (B) Plot comparing the progression of lesion size (mm) mean ± SEM over the time. Key: infective inocula: 10⁶ (•), 10⁵ (○), 10⁴ (▴) metacyclic promastigotes per mouse. Effect of infective inocula on: C) lesion size (mm), D) fluorescence signal (pixel/second/cm²/sr), E) parasitic load (LDAU) in the poplyteal lymph node draining the lesion of infected animals. Key: infective inocula: 10⁴ (○), 10⁵ (•). Data were individually collected at the end of the experiment.
