Fig. 2From: Influence of Schistosoma japonicum programmed cell death protein 10 on the growth and development of schistosomulaSjpcdp10 transcript levels in the schistosomulum stage of the Schistosoma japonicum life-cycle. Stages included skin-stage schistosomula (30 min), 3-day-old lung-stage schistosomula (3 d), 10-day-old liver-stage schistosomula (10 d), 14-day-old liver-stage schistosomula (14 d), 18-day-old liver-stage schistosomula (18 d), and 21-day-old liver-stage schistosomula (21 d). Sjpcdp10 transcript levels at the different schistosomula stage were compared by multiple comparisons. The expression of S. japonicum α-tubulin was used as an internal control. All experiments were performed in triplicate, and the figure above each bar is the mean of each group. Asterisks denote significant differences (P < 0.05)Back to article page
