Spleen capsule thickness of uninfected and mice infected with Plasmodium chabaudi-parasitized erythrocytes. a Normal thickness of uninfected spleen capsule. b Infected spleen capsule on day 6 postinfection (p.i.). c PPE-treated infected mice show restoration of spleen capsule thickness. d Bar chart is thickness of spleen capsule (μm) among three groups, non-infected ~25 μm, PPE-treated infected mice, ~15 μm and PPE-treated infected mice with PPE ~20 μm. Each group represents an average of five different fields of spleen sections stained with hematoxylin and eosin; scale bar = 25 μm
