Neutrophils and macrophages play opposing roles during establishment of <i>T</i>. <i>marneffei</i> infection.

<p>(A) Representative images of 52 hpf <i>Tg(mpeg1</i>:<i>mCherry/mpx</i>:<i>EGFP)</i> embryos injected with antisense morpholino oligonucleotides to perturb the balance of neutrophil and macrophage populations. (B) <i>T</i>. <i>marneffei</i> CFU numbers at 24 hpi corresponding to the aligned treatment groups in panels (Ai-iv), for wild-type (WT) and myeloperoxidase-deficient (<i>mpx</i>^-/-) genotypes as shown. Data are mean±SEM for n≥3 experiments, n≥5 embryos/group/experiment.
