Recovery of metabolic profile in brain slices. Cortical slices from P. berghei ANKA-infected (dark columns) and uninfected mice (light columns) were incubated in brain slice buffer for 1 hour. Slices were removed at regular intervals to determine viability. Abbreviations: Lac, lactate; GABA, γ-aminobutyrate. Columns and bars are mean ± SD (n = 3).

Typical 600.13 MHz NMR spectra of perchloric acid extracts of mouse brains. A: Control mouse. B: CM mouse. C: NCM mouse. Spectra represent the sum of 32 transients and were transformed with two degrees of zero filling and 0.5 Hz exponential multiplication. Abbreviations: GABA, γ-aminobutyric acid; NAA, N-acetylaspartate; GPC, glycerophosphocholine; Cre, creatine; Lac, lactate.
