Figure 4

Cytoadhesion activity to HUVECs of monkey and human RBCs infected with transgenic parasites expressing SICA-HUVEC-Myc. (A) The number of infected monkey RBCs bound to HUVECs was compared among the parental wild-type parasite (WT), the transfectant expressing mCherry (mCherry), and the transfectant expressing SICA-HUVEC-Myc. (B) The number of infected human RBCs bound to HUVECs was compared between the transfectant expressing mCherry (mCherry) and the transfectant expressing SICA-HUVEC-Myc. Statistical differences were examined by Tukey's multiple comparison test after one-way ANOVA (A) or two-tailed Student's t-test (B). ns (not significant) indicates P > 0.05.
