Evaluation of amoebicidal potential of Paneth cell cryptdin-2 against Entamoeba histolytica. by Simran Preet, Sanjay Bharati, Geeta Shukla, Ashwani Koul, Praveen Rishi

“…<h4>Methods/principal findings</h4>In the present study, cryptdin-2 exhibited potent in-vitro amoebicidal activity against E. histolytica in a concentration dependent manner at a minimum amoebicidal concentration (MAC) of 4 mg/L. Scanning electron microscopy as well as phase contrast microscopic investigations of cryptdin-2 treated trophozoites revealed that the peptide was able to induce significant morphological alterations in terms of membrane wrinkling, leakage of the cytoplasmic contents and damaged plasma membrane suggesting a possible membrane dependent amoebicidal activity. …”
