esiRNA: mean % killing relative to FLUC control. P calculated relative to FLUC control by 2-tailed t test.

EXP: level of colonic expression (+) 0–25%, (++) 25–50%, (+++) 50–75%, (++++) 75–100%.

REG: mean difference in gene expression between day 1 of acute amebiasis and day 60 (recovery) (n = 8, matched samples).
