A Proteomic and Cellular Analysis of Uropods in the Pathogen Entamoeba histolytica
Figure 6
The cellular localization of the immunodominant antigen M17 in E. histolytica.
Trophozoites were incubated with serum from healthy patients (left panels), with serum from patients with amoebic liver abscesses (middle panes) or with green fluorescent Con A (right panels). Upon incubation, the cells were fixed and stained for M17 with a specific antibody (red) and co-stained with a serum recognizing anti-human IgG (left and middle panels). Scale bar: 10 µm.
