In vaccinated mice, however, the liver responded to malaria with a significant (p-value < 0.05) decrease in Zfpm1 expression from 162 to 150 on day 1 p.i., before Zfpm1 expression began to slightly increase, reaching approximately 159 above the normalization level at peak parasitaemia on day 8 p.i., which is, however, apparently in the same range as the constitutive expression level on day 0 p.i. The gene discussed is ZFPM1; the disease is malaria.
