Chronic infection with M. avium does not alter the hippocampal cell proliferation. Hippocampal cell proliferation was assessed in M. avium infected and non-infected Balb/c (A) C57BL/6 (B) and CD1 (C) mice. The bars represent the mean + SEM of Ki67 + cells per mm2 in the SGZ of each animal (6–8 mice per strain from 2 independent experiments).
