A Sequential Model of Host Cell Killing and Phagocytosis by Entamoeba histolytica [PDF]
The protozoan parasite Entamoeba histolytica is responsible for invasive intestinal and extraintestinal amebiasis. The virulence of Entamoeba histolytica is strongly correlated with the parasite's capacity to effectively kill and phagocytose host cells ...
