Blood/lavage fluid cellular analysis. Mice were rendered diabetic via injection of alloxan (60 mg/kg i.v.) and infected with P. brasiliensis (1 × 106 cells i.t.). Samples were obtained 55 days after alloxan injection and 45 days after the incubation period. Five animals were included in each group. Values are the means ± SEM. (a) Leukocyte count in total blood. (b) Leukocyte count in BALF. (c) Leukocyte count in PeLF. ; ; .
