Alterations in protein expression and complement resistance of pathogenic Naegleria amoebae.

Highly pathogenic strains of Naegleria fowleri activate the alternative complement pathway but are resistant to lysis. In contrast, weakly pathogenic and nonpathogenic Naegleria spp. activate the complement pathway and are readily lysed. The present study was undertaken to determine whether surface...
