Insulin Modulates Paracoccidioides brasiliensis-Induced Inflammation by Restoring the Populations of NK Cells, Dendritic Cells, and B Lymphocytes in Lungs

Figure 4

Leukocyte populations in lungs. Mice were rendered diabetic via injection of alloxan (60 mg/kg i.v.) and infected with P. brasiliensis (1 × 10⁶ cells i.t.). Lung samples were obtained 55 days after alloxan injection and 45 days after the incubation period. Five animals were used for each group. Values are the means ± SEM. ; ; .
