M. circinelloides inhibits the expression of immune-related genes in the head kidney of zebrafish. The mRNA levels of the genes coding for the indicated pro-inflammatory and neutrophil (mpx) and macrophage (mpeg1) markers were determined by RT-qPCR at 16 hpi in the head kidney from zebrafish challenged with 2.5 × 105 R7B spores/fish or 107 NRRL spores/fish (n = 8). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001. ns, nonsignificant.
