Deterioration of polarized primary monolayers of A) prostate (PrEC) epithelial cells and B) cervical (CerEC) epithelial cells after culturing with T. vaginalis strains Balt42 and JH31. Deterioration was determined by a decrease in the resistance of a polarized monolayer of cells. Ratios given are protozoan to cell. Black bar, 0 h; grey bar, 4 h; white bar, 18 h after T. vaginalis addition. Data presented are representative of two independent experiments. T0, time zero.
