Damage to Trichinella spiralis newborn larvae by eosinophil major basic protein

D L Wassom et al. Am J Trop Med Hyg. 1979 Sep.

Abstract

Purified eosinophil major basic protein damaged newborn larvae of Trichinella siralis when added to in vitro cultures. Damaged larvae were stiffened, immobile, and showed a granular appearance by light microscopy. Larvae in control cultures and in cultures containing equimolar concentrations of other basic proteins failed to exhibit such damage.
