Lesion size and inflammatory infiltration in the liver of mice during the course of infection. (a) Liver lesion area determined by microscopic measurement of H&E-stained tissue sections, and expressed as square micrometers (μm2). (b) Total number of hepatic mononuclear cells (MNCs). LD: 50 PSCs; MD: 500 PSCs; HD: 2000 PSCs. Data are shown as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM, 4–6 mice per group), *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001.
