Figure 12From: Molecular characterization of a Trichinella spiralis serine proteinaseADCC killing effect on NBLs. NBLs were cultured with anti-rTsSerp serum and 2 × 105 mouse peritoneal exudate cells (PECs) at 37 °C for 48 h. A PECs adhering to the NBLs; B Dead and disintegrated NBLs; C Live NBLs; D The cytotoxicity was dose dependent for anti-rTsSerp antibodies. E Cytotoxicity also increased with prolonged culture time. *P < 0.05 relative to the pre-immune serum group. Scale bars: 50 μm.Back to article page
