Real-time PCR analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in A. castellanii. mRNA expression levels of 5 DEGs in A. castellanii during encystation and excystation were assessed using real-time PCR. (A) ACA1_031140. (B) ACA1_032330. (C) ACA1_374400. (D) ACA1_275740. (E) ACA1_112650. The transcription levels of these 5 genes were compared among Acanthamoeba trophozoites and encysting and excysting forms. Data are shown as the mean±SD, representing 3 independent experiments. Asterisks indicate statistical significance: ****P<0.0001 compared to Acanthamoeba trophozoites.
