Diethylstilbestrol Exposure in Neonatal Mice Induces Changes in the Adulthood in the Immune Response to Taenia crassiceps without Modifications of Parasite Loads
Figure 5
Effects of infection and neonatal DES administration on estrogen receptor α content in mesenteric nodes of mice, control, and infected with cysticerci of Taenia crassiceps detected by flow cytometry. Estrogen receptor alpha was detected in T lymphocytes (CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+) and B lymphocytes (CD19+). Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of 2 different experiments, each. Post hoc individual contrasts of group means by Bonferroni’s Exact Test used the sum of residual and three-factor interaction variance to test for significant differences.
