In the chronic infection at day 98 post-infection, despite the reduction in parasite load (Fig. 3b), we could not detect any modulation of IFN-gamma (Additional file 3: Figure S3a), IL-4 (Additional file 3: Figure S3b), TGF-beta (Additional file 3: Figure S3d) and IL-10 (Additional file 3: Figure S3c). Here, IL10 is linked to infection.
