摘要: Entamoeba histolytica is a human intestinal parasite that causes amoebic colitis as well liver abscesses. Host tissues are damaged through three-step process involving adherence, contact-dependent cytolysis, and phagocytosis. These three processes all contribute to the pathogenicity of this parasite. Adherence provided by Gal/GalNAc adherence lectin. cells lysed in fashion. There evidence suggests killing involves induction host cell’s apoptotic machinery. Phagocytosis can then occur, consistent with metazoan clearance.
