Activity of AST and ALT; urea and creatinine in the blood plasma of uninfected hamsters as a control group (C, n = 10 animals/time; white) and in hamsters experimentally infected with L. infantum (PP75 or OP46 strain) by routes of inoculation: intradermal (ID, n = 10 animals/time; light gray), intraperitoneal (IP, n = 10 animals/time; dark gray), or intracardiac (IC, n = 10 animals/time; black) after 1, 3, 6 and 9 months of infection. The results are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Significant differences with P < 0.05 between infection with the routes of inoculation are represented by the connected line
