Extended Data Fig. 8: qPCR confirmation of the transcription levels of genes associated with protein trafficking and that related to parasite invasion and locomotion of P. falciparum 3D7 post βOHB treatment.

a, Ten DEGs related to parasite invasion and locomotion were downregulated in the P. falciparum 3D7 + βOHB group. b, Nine DEGs related to parasite development were downregulated in the P. falciparum 3D7 + βOHB group. c, Eight DEGs associated with protein trafficking were upregulated in the P. falciparum 3D7 + βOHB group. (n = 3, Unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-tests). Data are all presented as means ± SEMs.
