Parasite load in lymph node and bone marrow of B6.WT and B6.CCR6−/− mice.

Mice were infected with L. major and the parasite load in different organs was quantified at the indicated time points by real-time PCR. The mean values of parasites (± SEM) per 106 cells are presented.aThe experiment was performed with 3 mice per time point and genotype once.bn.d., not detectable,cparasites were detected in one out of three mice,dparasites were detected in two out of three mice.
