Project description:To investigate the transcriptional responses of intestinal epithelial cells and Giardia intestinalis, assemblage A isolate WB-C6, trophozoites during infection, we infected human enteroids with preconditioned trophozoites for 1h and 3h. Giardia intestinalis trophozoites were preconditioned before the infection with either DMEM/F-12 or DMEM/F-12 supplemented with 10% FBS to modify the trophozoites’ fitness.
Project description:We have performed strand-specific RNA-seq of trophozoites from four different Giardia intestinalis strains (A=WB and AS175, B=GS, E=P15). Comparison of mRNA levels in four different Giardia intestinalis strains.
