D Violin plot demonstrates Havcr2 expression in splenic macrophages at the single-cell level. E Tim-3 expression levels of splenic macrophages in naïve and infected groups. F mRNA expression level of Havcr2 in macrophages. G Tim-3 expression in RAW264.7 cells co-cultured with PBS, uRBCs, and iRBCs. H mRNA expression level of Havcr2 in RAW264.7.

C The line graph illustrated the protozoan rate after Tim-3 blockade in C57BL/6 mice. D The line graph illustrated the rate of body weight change after Tim-3 blockade in C57BL/6 mice. E Histopathological analysis of spleen sections from infected mice. F Expression of Tim-3 on splenic macrophages in infected and anti-Tim-3 groups. G Expression of MHC-II on Tim-3 + macrophages.

Bottom: ChIP-qPCR analysis of STAT3 recruitment to the indicated regions of EBI3 and IL12A promoters in BMDCs at 0.5 h after LDPm infection ( n = 6 replicates). Results are presented as fold enrichment relative to uninfected BMDCs.
