Sporozoite gliding motility and resistance to osmotic shock. (A) Circular gliding of sporozoites on glass slides. Frames are taken at 10-s intervals. (B) Swelling of sporozoites exposed to 0.33× normal osmotic strength, compared with untreated cells (1.0×). Nuclei are stained with DAPI (blue). (C) Percent sporozoite survival/death after hypo-osmotic shock (5-min exposure to 0.33× normal osmotic strength, values normalized to 100% viability in untreated cells). Error bars indicate SDs from two independent experiments. At least 100 cells were scored for each sample. WT: wild-type, KO: PbIMC1a-KO.
