Abstract

<p>(A and B) Non-infected mouse; (C and D) Single-infected mouse with slight thickening of the septum at the expense of inflammatory infiltrates, hyperaemia and haemorrhage (*); (E and F) Reinfected mouse with inflammatory infiltrate, intense hyperaemia and haemorrhage, causing extensive thickening of the septum (*). Lower magnification Bar scale = 50 μm. Higher magnification Bar scale = 100 μm. (G) Area of the lesion caused by larval migration and inflammation in the lung on the 8<sup>th</sup> day post-infection; Mann-Whitney test was used to assess differences between the groups. (H-I) Optical density representing the MPO and EPO activity in the lung at 8 days post-infection. (H) EPO production in the lung on the 8<sup>th</sup> day post-infection. (I) MPO production in the lung on the 8<sup>th</sup> day post-infection. Kruskal-Wallis test followed by Dunn´s multiple comparisons test was used to evaluate differences between groups. The p values in the graphs represent the significant differences.</p
