(a) Histopathological changes in the lungs. H&E stain. (b) Histopathological score analysis of the lungs. Data are represented as mean ± SD. Significant differences between groups were analyzed using Wilcoxon rank sum test. #P < 0.05 and ##P < 0.01, malarial mice treated with α-lactose on 5 days p.i. and malarial mice on 7 days p.i. vs. malarial mice on 5 days p.i.; ΔΔ, P < 0.01, malarial mice treated with α-lactose on 7 days p.i. vs. malarial mice treated with α-lactose on 5 days p.i.; ξξξ, P < 0.001, malarial mice treated with α-lactose on 7 days p.i. vs. malarial mice on 7 days p.i. There were four mice per group, and data are representative of those from two experiments.
