CD86MFI on monocyte subsets from VL patients at ToD and EoT and on monocytes from HNEC.

<p>PBMCs were purified from VL patients at ToD (n = 20) and EoT (n = 20) and from HNEC (n = 10) and the expression levels (MFI = Median Fluorescence Intensity) of CD86 were measured on the different monocyte subsets by flow cytometry. Results are presented as median with interquartile range. Statistical differences were determined by Kruskall-Wallis test (*) and Dunn’s multiple comparisons test (<sup>#</sup>). ToD = Time of Diagnosis; EoT = End of Treatment; HNEC = healthy non-endemic controls. C = classical monocytes. I = intermediate monocytes. NC = non-classical monocytes.</p> <p>(DOCX)</p>
