Quantification of WFA + neurons in the primary somatosensory cortex of T. gondii chronically infected susceptible and resistant mice. A Comparison of the average number of neurons labeled for WFA in the PSC of resistant (BALB/c) and susceptible (C57BL/6) mice chronically infected with T. gondii. B Distribution of WFA + neurons in the PSC of resistant C57BL/6 mice. C Distribution of WFA + neurons in the PSC of susceptible BALB/c mice. D Photomicrography showing the differences in the distribution of WFA + neurons in the PSC of chronically infected resistant BALB/c and susceptible C57BL/6 mice. Arrowheads indicate T. gondii tissue cysts, scale: 100 μm. Boxplot with minimum to maximum value plot was used to show the data. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001
