qRT-PCR of infestin.
<p>Adult insects infected with <i>T. cruzi</i> and uninfected <i>T. infestans</i> were used for analysis (three biological samples were used for both the uninfected and infected groups). All data were normalized to 18S ribosomal RNA, representing the mean (n = 3) of identical triplicates ± standard deviation. An unpaired <i>t</i> test was performed for statistical analysis.</p

qRT-PCR of four transcripts upregulated upon <i>T. cruzi</i> infection.
<p>Amounts of mRNA from nitrophorin-like protein (A), 14 kDa protein (B), lysozyme (C) and cathepsin D (D) were obtained by relative quantification. Adult insects infected with <i>T. cruzi</i> and uninfected <i>T. infestans</i> were used for analysis (three biological samples were used for both the uninfected and infected groups). All data were normalized to 18S ribosomal RNA, representing the mean (n = 3) of identical triplicates ± standard deviation. An unpaired <i>t</i> test was performed for statistical analysis, and differences were considered significant at P<0.05. Asterisks represent significant differences (** P<0.01; *** P<0.001).</p

qRT-PCR of Thioredoxin reductase upon <i>T. cruzi</i> infection.
<p>The levels of mRNA from Thioredoxin reductase were obtained by relative quantification. Adult insects infected with <i>T. cruzi</i> and uninfected <i>T. infestans</i> were used for analysis (three biological samples were used for both the uninfected and infected groups). All data were normalized to 18S ribosomal RNA, representing the mean (n = 3) of identical triplicates ± standard deviation. An unpaired <i>t</i> test was performed for statistical analysis, and differences were considered significant at P<0.05. Asterisks represent significant differences (*** P<0.001).</p
