Alternative pathway activation of complement by African trypanosomes lacking a glycoprotein coat
Summary An in vitro culture Trypanosoma congolense cell line was established using the mammalian cell feeder layer system. One of the principle characteristics of this parasite was its ability to multiply in culture at 35°C, as an uncoated trypanosome (lacking a glycoprotein surface coat) unlike the...
