Potential Role of Carvedilol in the Cardiac Immune Response Induced by Experimental Infection with Trypanosoma cruzi

Figure 4

Carvedilol reduces inflammation in the T. cruzi infected cardiac tissue. The hearts from C57BL6 mice infected with T. cruzi were extracted after 30 days of infection/treatment and the leukocyte infiltration was evaluated by H&E. The noninfected animals were evaluated in parallel and sections were quantified in sections with 40x of magnification. Data are representative of the groups ( animals) and in relation to the noninfected group; in relation to the infected group without treatment.
