a Toxoplasma gondii tissue cyst. Scale bar = 20 μm. b Marked perivascular cuffing of mononuclear cells (asterisk), focal gliosis (arrow head), Toxoplasma gondii tissue cyst (arrows). Hematoxylin and eosin staining. Scale bar = 200 μm. c. Higher magnification of focal gliosis. Scale bar = 50 μm. d. Anti-Toxoplasma gondii immunopositivity in foci of gliosis (arrow), also tissue cyst was stained (arrow heads). IHC. DAB chromogen with hematoxylin counterstain. Scale bar = 100 μm. e. Anti-Toxoplasma gondii immunopositivity in foci of gliosis (arrows) and perivascular cell infiltration (arrow head). IHC. DAB chromogen with hematoxylin counterstain. Scale bar = 100 μm. f. Brain section from healthy animal. Hematoxylin and eosin staining. Scale bar = 200 μm. g. The number of tissue cysts number per brain (per 25 μl per brain homogenate) in 10, 15, 20, 30, 45, 60 day after infection. Values in a column suffixed with different letters are significantly different from each other. The values represent means ± S.E.M P<0.05 h. Comparison of total numbers of inflammatory foci. Values in a column suffixed with different letters are significantly different from each other. The values represent means ± S.E.M P<0.05
