Fig. 8

L. amazonensis i.pl. infection induces CX3CL1 mRNA expression in the ipsilateral DRG, and i.t. injection of TNF-α and IL-1β induces CX3CL1 mRNA expression in the ipsilateral DRG and spinal cord. CX3CL1 mRNA expression was determined in control non-infected and bilaterally in infected mouse on the 30th day after the infection by RT-qPCR (a). b, c The CX3CL1 mRNA expression in DRG (3 h) and spinal cord (3–24 h) after i.t. injections of TNF-α and IL-1β in naïve non-infected animals. Results are presented as mean ± SEM of six mice per group per experiment and are representative of two separated experiments for a, b, and c. *p < 0.05 compared to control non-infected mice (one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey post hoc)
