Duodenum of C57BL/6 mice, infected or not with T. gondii and treated or not with SGE 30 µg during the chronic or acute phases. Tissue sections of 4 µm, embedded in paraffin, were stained with Periodic Acid-Schiff (PAS). The slides were scanned, and images were captured using Aperio Imagescope software (version 12.3.3). Original magnification: 20x. Arrows indicate subepithelial edema. The scale bar represents 200 µm for a 20 × magnification of the epithelium or 2 µm for a 2 × magnification of a Swiss roll. The categories represented are: A Uninfected, untreated animals; B Uninfected animals treated with SGE 30 µg; C Infected, untreated animals in the acute phase; D Infected animals treated with SGE 30 µg in the acute phase; E Infected, untreated animals in the chronic phase; F Infected animals treated with SGE 30 µg in the chronic phase
