Figure 6. Immunolocalization of S. japonicum Sj-TSP-2e in adult female worms.

Figure 6

Parasite sections were reacted with specific antibodies produced in mice against recombinant Sj-TSP-2e. The antibodies that specifically bound to the sections were probed with an anti-mouse IgG labelled with Cy3 conjugate (a, c). Red fluorescence in panel c indicates Sj-TSP-2e is located in the parasite tegument (teg); anti-thioredoxin (fusion protein tagged with 6His) antibodies in panel a did not react. DAPI to label nuclei (nuc in blue) (b, d) was used as a quality control marker for the sections. Tegument, teg.
