Entamoeba histolytica: Correlation of the cytopathic effect of virulent trophozoites with secretion of a cysteine proteinase

Work from several laboratories suggests a correlation between expression of cysteine proteinase activity and the cytopathic effect of virulent HM1 strain Entamoeba histolytica trophozoites on cultured cell monolayers. Consistent with this relationship, we find that L-6 trophozoites, mutants cloned f...
