Fig. 2

Effect of oral treatment of Sida pilosa aqueous extract on the morphometry of the liver (I) and the ileum (II) of Schistosoma mansoni-infected mice. (a): number of granulomas; (b): volume of granulomas / muscular layer thickness. UIC: uninfected-untreated mice; IC: infected-untreated mice; PZQ: infected mice treated with praziquantel; SpAE 200: infected mice treated with Sida pilosa aqueous extract at 200 mg/kg. Data are expressed as mean ± SEM (n = 6). ANOVA followed by Newman-Keuls multiple comparison test was used for statistical analysis. ***p < 0.001: values are significantly different from those of uninfected-untreated mice (group UIC). #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001: values are significantly different from those of infected-untreated mice (group IC). £p < 0.05, £££p < 0.001: values are significantly different from those of infected mice treated with praziquantel (group PZQ)
