Giardia duodenalis: analysis of secreted proteases upon trophozoite-epithelial cell interaction in vitro
Protease secretion by Giardia duodenalis trophozoites upon interaction with epithelial cells and its association with the parasite adhesion was studied in co-cultures of parasites with IEC6 epithelial cell monolayers in the presence or absence of protease inhibitors. Proteolytic activity in supernat...
