Figure 7From: Intraperitoneal prophylaxis with CpG oligodeoxynucleotides protects neutropenic mice against intracerebral Escherichia coli K1 infection Meningeal infiltration score was similar in CpG- and buffer-treated animals. Meningeal infiltration score was calculated in chloroacetate esterase-stained brain sections of CpG- and buffer-treated neutropenic wt mice which were sacrificed 42 h after induction of E. coli meninigoencephalitis. Each symbol represents an individual mouse. Bars indicate median values. Statistical analysis was performed by Mann-Whitney U test.Back to article page
